He wasn't he also wasn't apprehended.

If hundreds of people heard gunshots after the fight as he claims and there was a huge panic and police response there should be easily accessible information about it somewhere huh :)

Link me the story, i'm waiting.

I thought you guys were usually from the side of "let's wait until all the facts come out before we form an opinion." You're flat out saying "I don't care what he says, I don't believe him."

The fight happened August 26th. There has been plenty of time for a story to substantiate his claim of gunshots, a mass panic, and police response to have happned in LV.

I mean I don't see why he would be targeted if there were hundreds of people. That said I don't see why this is considered excessive.

If there were gunshots I would assume more people had guns pointed at them and were cuffed.

I had guns pointed at me and was cuffed for matching the description of a robbery suspect. Tall, white in a leather jacket. That didn't seem overboard to me either.

You don't see why forcing a man to the ground, putting your gun on his head and telling him "i'll blow your fucking head off" is excessive?

I mean, for the sake of argument let's say he's not lying. You really don't get why that would be considered excessive?

Maybe the words but not particularly. He didn't do anything and they say things like that to keep guys with guns from moving. It makes both of them safer to have a clear understanding of the gravity of the situation.

You just said the whole incident was captured. Nothing in the video shows unnecessary force or a gun held to his head as he claims.

Did you read my whole post or...? I've bolded the part you seemed to have skipped. We can't just assume that the incident was exactly as Bennett described because this clip seems to contradict his description. Maybe another clip surfaces or the cop's body cams (If they had them) recorded the incident and they show something we don't see.

lolwut? I didn't say anything that you are claiming that I said outside of maybe "It doesn't look that bad" in the sense that the video doesn't correspond to the amount of brutality that Bennett described. He may have still been inappropriately targeted and things still may have been said that this recording did not catch. I didn't move any goal posts because I didn't place any goal posts in the first place.

I don't but they were responding to gun shots and for some reason he became a suspect. You treat that suspect as if they do until they're cleared. Better handled the way it was than not making expectations clear and shooting someone just for moving or approaching the situation lackadaisicaly and getting shot as to not hurt feelings.

They responded to a shooting. Apprehended a suspect who wasn't hurt and then cleared the matter and let him go. Don't see an issue.

All this thread proves to me is that the majority does not care about the issues of the minority.

What reason does Michael Bennet have to make this up? The video starts a good bit into his story. The fact that he was released with no charges is evidence enough of police wrongdoing. He shouldn't have even been on the ground in cuffs. He's even taking legal action. It is a crime to lie to a court so once again I ask why would Bennett make this up??

It makes me sick people act like this is a joke. I'm tagging everyone writing this off as racist. You don't have to support the cause but don't act like the issue doesn't exist.

I never said he made it up...

I did say that this isn't a minority issue. I was stopped at gun point and cuffed as I already stated.

This is being detained and is not evidence of wrong duty. It's the police having reason to believe you may have been involved in a crime. If they think you may be armed (like when responding to gunshots) they're going to treat suspects as if they're armed. That's what Bennetts story sounds like and that's what happened to me.

Anyone who thinks this is wrong and police should approach shootings without guns and simply ask people if they've been shooting at people are the low end of the gene pool.

It's amazing to see how this topic unfolded. We went from
1. "He's lying. There was no incident in Las Vegas. No one reported any police issues that night."
2. "Ok, so there was an issue with the police. But there's no video of the incident so he's lying."
3. "Ok, so there's a video, but it only shows the last half of the arrest, so he's lying."
4. "Ok so even if he's not lying, they probably thought he was armed, so the cops are right to react the way they did."

What *is* a minority issue though, is people believing the person when they say the police were unfair to them.
