Highway Trooper Gets Perp With PIT Manuever- Idiots Complain
Explanation with video:
More trouble for the South Carolina Highway Patrol after more videotapes were released which show officers behaving badly.
3 weeks ago, Governor Mark Sanford accepted the resignations of both the public safety director James Schweitzer and the Highway Patrol commander Russell Roark.
This, after he viewed tapes, including one from 2004, showing a trooper using a racial slur and threatening to kill a man during a foot chase.
Civic leaders and some lawmakers now want an investigation into the patrol. Those same leaders brought videos showing a patrolman ramming a man running down a side street, and flipping him into a ditch. The trooper later brags he was trying to hit the man.
When asked on the tape you can hear the trooper say, “Yeah, I was trying to hit him. I hit the **** out of him.”
“You have to understand the arrogance of these troopers who know they’re being recorded,” says Rep. Hart. “To still do this type of activity and say look we don’t care, we’ll do whatever we want to do.”
“He needs to be arrested,” says Rep. Christopher Hart of Richland County. “He needs to be charged, he needs to be brought before the law and prosecuted for that.”
Be respectful of others and their opinions. Inflammatory remarks and inane leftist drivel will be deleted. It ain’t about free speech, remember you’re in a private domain. My website, my prerogative.

Is there any idiots out there who don’t know that when you run from the cops, bad things happen?!!
Why don’t we punish the bad guys instead of going after the cops!!!!
