That pepper sprays some painfull shit, I wouldnt want to be on the receiving end of it more than once. By the looks of the photo by guy was pretty well tied up and retrained without the use of pepper spray.....(im not cop bashing)

no mate this one is no hate coppers, sit back and watch all:slap: and the bad shit it the fan

[Madness]

From what I've seen, and in my humble, unqualified opinion. It didn't appear to be a reasonable use of force. Nice to see someone in a suit getting fucked over for a change though I must say.

We don't hate the police, we just hate what they do. No morals. Simple.

[miSTa]

Did look a little unnecessary....

[WINJA]

that was bullshit , the pig that did the spraying should be jailed and the pigs that just stood there and watched should be fired , and the pigs wonder why public opinion is at an all time low .
wheres the fucken respect for other humans , the guy was prolly drunk and very disorderly but even taffe hotene didnt get treated that bad , with an attitude like that the cop that did the spraying will end up like murray stretch , fucken arsehole .
and this is just the stuff we see , the tip of the iceberg so to speak and its about time that judges took seriousy police brutality with jail sentences for offending cops that are twice the duration of a civilian , if these cops are weeded out it will ultimately make the honest hardworking cops jobs just a little easier , but as long as cops are willing to stand there and watch another cop do this theyve got a big job ahead of them

[Biff]

Two words.

Arse biscuits.

Fuck that shit, fucking pigs.

One of my best friends thought he wanted to be a fucking pig for a little while. I convinced him otherwise luckly (I had just about everyone else around him thinking it was a good idea to be a pig too, moralless bastards)

I don't hate pigs because of what they are, I simply hate them since majority of them seems to have no morals or intelligence, and they do not act in a suitable mannor for a public servant. Infact I'm sure most of them don't even know what the meaning of public servant is, half of the bastards think they own the fucking country. If they want to be regarded with respect, they must first learn to treat the public with much more respect than they expect.

Why I was driving along one day minding my own business when one idiotic wanker in piggy uniform pulls me over then says "Where the hell do you think you are going in such a hurry mate?" Now I was astonished it wasn't some stupid boyracer talking to me but rather a "police OFFICER" I told the bastard, "Firstly, I'm not going anywhere near in a hurry, and secondly I don't believe we are aquainted" in a very polite tone. The idiot went back and ran some "checks" on my car and my licence took his fucking time about it and told me to go in about 15minutes. Result: waste of 15 minutes of my time, my life shortened by 15months due to stress and anger, and my attitude about these so called "public servants" in new zealand - completely unchanged (I never liked them before)

It's about time these idiotic pigs got a wakeup call. I don't ever expect these idiots to be "professional" with the attitude this country has about "law enforcement" but hopefully at least this will reduce the number of pigs thinking that they are the law.

Here's my take on what's gone so wrong with the police.

Firstly the law. Our laws have been designed to cover every conceivable situation where anything that can be dissapproved of can be punished, this was to give the police powers to sort out any kind of problem. All well and good if said police understood that the laws were designed to give powers, and not necessarily to be enforced to the absolute limit all the time. The laws are designed around the lowest common denominator, but are often enforced in situations that are totally unsuitable.

Police management is the main problem. The second problem is that many police start to get a rush out of the power that they receive when put in this position. Power does corrupt, not necessarily in a legal sense, but definitely in a moral sense. And this is further aggravated by the general type of people who become police officers. The only people I know who've considered joining the force are, dropouts, weed smokers, and bullies, also people who have failed at nearly everything else. I know one cop who is a genuine good dude, but he's definitely not impressed with how they run things and the attitude towards the public of his fellow officers. The force deserves no respect from me.
