When I was in the Coast Guard on Lake Erie (stationed in Detroit) we had to go thru ALOT of training reguarding that exact situation. And those officers did exactly what we were taught... The SICK thing is his family will prolly win some law suit, or jus tdrag it out enough that those poor officers are forced to resign.

Probably two wonderful officers that just had a tough case to deal with. But I applaud them on the job they did. Anyone who'se seen the video knows they were tellin him to put his hands behind his back, and other commands which he obvioulsy wasn't doing. And the fact that all the bruises were on his torso/back shows that they weren't wreckless with their batons. If they were wreckless he'd have bruises on his head and neck areas as well.
