I think the idea behind it is to wear a helmet because thats how easy it is to get brain damage on concrete...scary not funny, and I will say that mabey if the cop wasn't a fat ass he could have just caught her instead.

Certainly goes to show how fragile the head is.... point taken about helmets. Im a bit anal about lids, and cringe about the USA laws, and even open face helmets.

Back to that vid... someone who is paid to be a protector and serve his community cant even run fast enough to stop a hand cuffed girl?? Fat cops make me laugh.

She shouldnt have run; but tasering because your chief wiggum ass cant keep up!!??

i thought that was abit extreme to stop a teenage girl .....
maybe the copper needs to have a rethink and stop eating so much and possibly pop into a gym to loose that spare tyre round his waist

Yeah, she wasn't too far in front of him. If he was in shape he easily could have caught her. Stupid decision for her to run though...

This looks legit from the camera view but some of those city cops in Florida are bad.

My buddy down there was sitting at a red light on a small scooter and a cop came up behind him while off duty and didn't see him and hit him in the back with the bumper. He got knocked out. When he came to, the cop was trying to get him up. Ambulance came and took him to the hospital. Its been a year and a half now since the lawsuit has been filed cause the police refuse to pay medical bills. There was even witnesses. The cop is still on duty.

I'll remember to wear my helmet next time I run on foot from the cops so it'll look like they're chasing a Lego man.

Just talked to a buddy who was out for a week. Car u-turned in front of him. He came out pretty good. His wife not so much. Knocked out must of the right side teeth and a few on the left. Smacked the back of her head pretty hard. Lost about 50% of her sight and about 30% hearing. The doc said it will return slowly. Protect the melon.
