Another proud RCMP moment
 

not that it should make ANY difference at all

but i kinda want to know what the kid said to set him off. :scared0015:

I am wondering about this fluid, did the guy shart?

Usually they would say "smeared with blood." I'm thinking perhaps a mixture of blood,shart,and urine! I think that could be called an RCMP cocktail. LOL!

Whatever he said sure got him noticed and is the perfect example of a guy who was talking when he should have been listening!

I remember an interview from awhile back, the cop was mispronouncing his last name and he corrected him.

Found it:

I just wastched the video utterly disgusting, and they wonder why people have no respect for the rcmp. The guys just standing there should be charged also. The rcmp has become an utter disgrace.

He used to be stationed in Whitecourt, met him a few times, seemed to me to be one of those gung ho type officers. I also watched the video, and am curious if anything is happening to the other officer who just stood there and watched the whole thing happen. Seems to me he should have jumped in and did something.

Yup another proud RCMP moment. Makes me just want to go out and shake an officers hand and tell him how much I respect him and his kind. Never had a problem in the past but I'm inclined to carry a video camera everywhere I go now. Even routine road stops are becoming a carry on your way or get out of the car so I can smash your face in situation.

That Video was disturbing.

I dont doubt this....i would like to know HOW he corrected him though.

Something tells me the safe bet is he didnt just "correct" him. It was almost 100% Clyburns mouth that started the bar fight in the first place and it was definiently 100% his mouth that hampered him getting medical attention.

Be silly not to think he verbally assaulted the officer and lit the fuse.

Again im not justifying the beatdown. Just hard to imagine a long time officer blowing up over something as simple as being corrected on pronouncing a name. I dont buy it.

I wonder why we have a rash of these incidents now. For years and years the RCMP were the epitome of honorable law enforcement. Now suddenly they run off the rails??? Very disturbing,

Unless this kind of thing has been going on all along and now due to all the cameras at large these incidents are seeing the light of day. No tell me that isn't the case. Please.

Guaranteed that the guy's mouth is what caused him all the trouble all evening, but regardless, the RCMP know what's involved with beligerant drunks. The cop blew his top, I probably would have too, but I'm not a cop, and that's no excuse for that kind of beat down just because some idiot drunk lipped him off.

.
(if it was a case of disrespect)

Thats what some of those mouthy punks need. I bet he'll think twice before he hurls another insult at an RCMP officer.

Too bad the officer got caught on video.

Somehow we've all got to realize that there are some really great people in the force, that they are hogtied by a non-functional system that crucifies them when they try to deal with some of this garbage internally for being troublemakers. FWIW- I think that is the #1 issue behind alot of this.
It doesn't just exist in this enforcement agency either, DFO and SRD have the same sorts of issues. Perhaps a look into the basic training in Regina might be appropriate. Maybe check into a common sense course instead of the computer generated images of crooks pulling guns on the recruits without any provocation. By the time some of these boys leave Regina, they have it drilled into their head that everybody they deal with potentially wants to kill them.
Before Mayerthorpe et al gets thrown up at me, do you really think that those four boys might have had a better chance by going in guns drawn? That's a very unfortunate situation that I think might only have been dealt with by trying to reason. Makes a man wonder whether or not that guy might have been through a "Sandboe" situation and decided he wouldn't go through it again.

Just my own thoughts.

I watched the video as well and what I saw was an act of cowardice by a person in a position of authority. The Officer waited for the opportune moment to sucker punch the prisoner and subsequently lay a beating on him. :mad3: I have no time for cowards let alone a coward who is someone that is supposed to be the example of how people are supposed to behave.

Regardless of what the prisoner said the Officer over-reacted to say the least. It was a criminal act and I hope that his superiors feed him to the lions and the prisoner cleans him out financially.

If the RCMP wants to improve their image in the public's eyes it's time to start getting tough on these thugs in uniform and stop protecting them under an "old boys" code. This Officer is the perfect individual to make an example out of and set the standard for everyone. FIRE HIM! Anything less will be viewed as a slap on the wrist.

I still think that the RCMP is, as a whole, is very professional and their image is being soiled by a few bad apples. TIME TO CLEAN HOUSE RCMP!

As a side note, it looks to me like the Officer might be on the "juice", another controlled substance that is illegal.

You have my vote, well said.

What was Cst. Sandboe thinking? He surely knew there was video surveilence in the detachment hallway. It just doesn't make any sense, or are some of these guys so brazen that they think they can get away with it. I'm thinking he was on the "juice" too. Also, I'll bet that this Clyburn guy said something ignorant. I'm not saying it was right but he probably deserved the attitude adjustment.

Although the beating was a little extreme it was probably deserved. We don't know the big picture on these issues sometimes. This guy is a well known smart azz that needed a good attitude adjustment and he got it.. His parents obviously never tuned hm up so it was bout time someone did..

Hopefully he learned a lesson,, when the poe poe is talkin you best be listening,,, dumd azz...

Real tough guy hey ??? he pizzes himself when to chips are down...

Thats absolutely the dumbest thing I have ever heard.

Standing up for people in authority positions - abusing the powers we give them?

Police officers should be held to a higher standard.

Thats like saying its okay for a Fish Cop to poach as long as he doesn't get caught.

When sucker punching someone that you think has a big mouth and beating the pizz out of them becomes legal, especially by the police, we're in for big trouble.

Yup, kind of like somesome saying that is was their wife's fault that they smacked her. It don't wash.

Pickeral....are you serious????

tm

I can see a guy losing it, and can even go along with an attitude adjustment to a point. but the cop isn't the one with that power, and losing it doesn't include the extremes that happens in this. Enforcement officers are trained in tactics, and expected to be able to handle and laugh off abuse. If you can't find a different line of work.
With the amount of force used here to counter a very short verbal shot, how much more before the member escalates to using his other force tools??

Good point.

At least the cop has a reference for 'excessive force'.

Would it be ok to hang a licking on a cop who disrespected you? You know just to teach him a lesson.

This incident didn't take place when they were loading a belligerent drunk in to a car. The officer involved had nothing to do with the original complaint. He just came on shift. So how much if any abuse was he subjected to.

Exactly, the cop is getting what he deserves. The RCMP take alot of abuse by the drunks and all the tough guys in the world...they are trained to take it and if you can't, its time to get a new job before some one really gets hurt or killed.

In the other cases lately with RCMP misconduct the victims did NOTHING wrong. Somehow I don't feel too sorry for this guy though. He was probably beeking at people all night,picking fights and was already in at least 1. He would not accept help from a nurse who was there to help him and he finally lipped the wrong guy. That guy just happened to be an RCMP officer. Guys that go around picking fights and acting like "Richards" NEED to run into this sort of guy from time to time. Catching a beating like that will make sure it's a good long while before he acts like that again.

The RCMP member obviously went too far here and is going to lose his job over it. This one is suspended without pay and will never be a cop again.

I doubt it. I'm sure he'll get a handsome settlement and he obviously isn't big on authority and he cost a cop his job. I think what he learned is that this is a great way to get what he wants. Leaving him locked up and not acknowledging his temper tantrum would have taught him something.

He didn't cost the cop his job. The cop did that himself.

As far as the mouth finally getting his attitude adjustment, let's apply that logic to the thieves who hit Knight. Did they just finally come up against someone who could give them an attitude adjustment.

If simply disrespecting someone is justification for a beating, then why do we need cops?

I'd rather be armed and allowed to decide on my own who needed a tuneup.

It's one thing if the perp is resisting or is a threat, this is totally different.

No question but I bet in his mind he figures he did it and looks upon it as a victory...something to try and do again.
