It took eleven of these NYPD heroes to subdue one skinny man who just woke up and was entitled to be there because he had permission. Their mothers should be proud. Maybe cut back on the doughnuts boys and you could billy-club him to a coma with only 5 or 6 officers. I am no bleeding heart but we are not under martial law folks. NYPD cops have too little ability to talk to someone and too quick a desire to beat them.
I watched the video twice and never saw his "threatening body language" Sandy Scott. He didn't square off on the officers and didn't go into a fighting posture, not even when he was being beaten for about five minutes before the rest of the cops arrived. I agree he should have just complied and put his hands behind his back but their response was out of line.
