In all seriousness, if I resist arrest and drive around like a maniac, I'd expect to get physically restrained and then elbowed or punched until the arresting officers were able to gain control of my arms and cuff me.

It genuinely sucks, but sometimes there's no way to restrain a suspect without force. Obviously, the minimum level of force necessary should be applied to enact the arrest. From the helicopter view of that car chase, I couldn't tell if the officers had wrist control. I'd like to see body cam footage, if any exists, to see up close what the suspect was doing, and what the nearest officers were up to.

Well you see they're just trying to make it home and you can't see if they have wrist control and the driver could be on PCP even though he's white so..

When that someone has zero redeeming qualities beyond the superficial label of "human being" and all the grandiose follow-on titles and privileges our high-minded forefathers granted him.

They aren't entirely to blame. How could they have foreseen this meteoric rise of the common dipshit?

He swings elections. He child-safes our everything. He reproduces at an alarming rate. At the ripe old age of 30 he retires on disability and builds his investment portfolio around scratchers and pick 6's. He is the bane of all decent peoples. Minimum-wagers and public officials. Small business owners and Labor advocates. God-fearing bake-salers and Godless pride-marchers.

But how does it thrive? It is prideful, so it cannot hide. It is impatient, so it cannot negotiate. It possesses low animal cunning, but it bites all hands.

The American Dipshit exists solely for the same reason Evil does. Good men do nothing.

Otherize and Oppress that turd until it voluntarily flushes itself.

Tyranny of the masses lost its appeal for me the first time I heard a 20-something felon proclaim his intent to father 10 more children beyond the 5 he already had.

Whatever the magic bullet, The American Dipshit will fight against it. And win.

You would be hard-pressed to find a more concentrated population of American Dipshits than any given USMC infantry squad.

But at least they're trying to shave the number down a bit.

That's true for dipshits everywhere though. If being married and having kids feels like a voluntary burden and a massive drain on limited time and resources, congratulations: you're not a dipshit.

At least the infantryman may off himself in a post-military haze of inadequacy or, prior to that, sacrifice himself upon the altar of dipshit nation's irrational fear of all things foreign and terrorfying.

Relax. Being murdered by a 12 year old wielding a shovel and a jug of PME isn't a qualifying attribute for identifying an unredeemable dipshit.

Too bad stainless steel grief-bling and gaudy memorial tats aren't visible in our digital sacred space. Here I am, shop-lighting a fatal flaw, totally ignorant to the fact that someone on a subforum of broke-brain veterans may have had occasion to salute a poster-printed photo of their battle buddy under company color and desert sun while strains of Eternal Father emanate from a boombox.

My bad.

Dude you're a weird one, and that's fine.

But try not to make suicide jokes that aren't even funny while tacked onto a fuckin' lame-rear end defense of cop hyperviolence being justified because "some criminal" said something inflammatory.

Like you remember when you were a powerless member of society, beholden to the whims of whoever happened to be appointed over you, and the only way you could exert power was through either insubordination or sarcasm and humor? Now imagine that any violence against you is justified because YOU MADE THAT CHOICE and your superiors are just trying to make it to the end of each day.

I get there are scumbag criminals who are rightly removed from society, but we need to make sure law enforcement is actually taking the high ground and not acting in such a way that were they not protected by law, they wouldn't be in jail.

If you're going to make a suicide joke at least make it sound like a joke to people.
