I don't believe that anyone who's contained and not posing a threat to anyone else has a gang-style beating or murder by cops "coming to them", MS.
That's the belief of people with superiority complexes; people who conduct themselves as if they have the right or power to decide other people's worthiness. That's the belief of people who consider themselves above it all and have no regard for equal rights and no regard for the concept of the law applying equally to ALL (including public servants). That's why it doesn't surprise me that you feel the way you do about this topic MS.
I'll never share your views, but I understand where you're coming from. I doubt people who are sometimes tolerant or appreciative of unwarranted police brutality, like you, will ever share my views on this topic either. Different perspectives; not a problem.
One thing I've learned from experience though -- it's unsuspecting apathetic people like you who cry foul the hardest and loudest when they or someone they love ends up being harassed or brutalized by cops or anyone else. Even though you're an arrogant bastard and even if I didn't like you, I'd still condemn unwarranted violence against you and wouldn't believe that your sorry ass had gotten what it had coming.
It's not a matter of feeling sorry for criminals or having a bleeding heart. It's an understanding that laws exist for a reason in a civilized society and nobody should be able to break those laws and systematically assault and kill people with impunity.
