Everyone check this out!!!

i know. i just thought that more people check this one than basically any of the others, so it would probably get the most attention here
 
i dont know, but still. its not like they killed anyone, or vandalized anything. even if they were just talking a little to much shit. they deffinatly were still the victims in this case. not all of those people did anything wrong when you saw them get arrested

That cop is just about the most worthless piece of shit excuse for a dencent human I've ever seen...definitely going to email those fuckers.
 
i would love if a cop did that to me, cause dispite the pain in the ass it would be for me, you would be able to get a settlement for police brutality and abuse of power, basically that cop would be fucked and you might be getting some money, especially since skateboarding is not illegal on a street in a city like that (unless signs are posted, which is unlikely)
 
ok there was a city ordinience against skateboarding, but that is just a ticket, similar to jaywaking or loitering, and is not an arrestable offense.
 
besides, those guys might not even have known about it, in which case they would recieve a warning.
 
And beating kids is illegal too. Or is ignorance, in this case, an excuse?

sorry, it works both ways. Beating kids is as bad as molesting them: illegal, immoral, and disgusting.

Criminal charges can and should be filed, and those officers need to lose their jobs.

Skateboarding: it's not a crime.
 
are you fucking serious....... first thing i bet you just got that from pete's thread about jon's dub kang, secondly, that cop asnt been rolled off anything high, strapped to a board. not somthing to joke about. your a doucebag
 
actually your an idiot.....me and nitro-rider started the whole rickrolling thing on NS.....so pete probably got it from me or nitro-rider
 
Those of you calling

the station to complain are making it worse for those kids. The police

department doesn't care what you think about the situation, all you are

doing is pissing them off and making them more likely to fight the

lawsuit instead of settling out of court.
 
Settling out of court? Are you mad? That isn't even applicable here, this isn't a case where anyone is seeking any amount of money.
 
on top of that, i have no doubt that this story will soon be in the media. i have already seen it on several other sites. this is not going to be settled out of court.

here is some more information on the incident:

Hot Springs (AP) - Video from the popular internet web site YouTube that was posted by one of six people arrested for skateboarding in downtown hot springs is causing quiet a stir.

Hot Springs police say the skateboarders were in violation of a city ordinance. Now three minors and three adults are facing charges, and the officer who arrested them is on administrative leave.

The video–which was shot by one of the skateboarders, and captured almost the entire incident–was posted on YouTube Monday, and has already gotten more than 30,000 hits.

The kids who were arrested say they were just celebrating National Go Skateboarding Day last Thursday, but police say they were breaking the law.

(Matt McCormack, Arrested for Skateboarding) “He grabbed a kid from around his back by the neck and took him to the ground and choked him.”

(Skylar Nalls, Arrested for Skateboarding) “The kid didn’t know that he was coming after him. He kind of just grabbed him from behind and took him to the ground and started choking him.”

Skylar Nalls first ran toward his friend, snapping still photos, before the 19-year-old Nalls is seen on the video running away from the officer.

(Nalls) “He looked up at me and pointed and he said, ‘hey you, come here.” And then out of instinct, I just ran.”

Officer Joseph Williams gave up on chasing Nalls, but held on to the 13-year old.

Now that so many people have seen the incident on YouTube, the Hot Springs Police Department is being forced to take a strong look at one of their own.

(Officer McCrary Means, Hot Springs Police Dept.) “There is a flood of phone calls and emails…right now there is an investigation of the officer involved in the incident.”

Two of the juveniles are under house arrest because it’s their second time skateboarding on city sidewalks.

 
I love how they say "administrative leave"...they basically suspended him because everyone saw what a dick he was and it makes the precinct look bad. And another thing...who the fuck has a law against skateboarding on the sidewalk? Where else are you supposed to ride it? I bet if they'd ridden in on the street they would've come after them for that too, it's just complete BS.
