Cleverly disguised as a responsible adult!
stand corrected Mili. No public apology needed and forget about a lawsuit. Law enforcement was there doing thier job. That's what we pay them for. I'd rather them look into the situation then just let it go. A small misunderstanding could've been a larger situation a far as they knew.HAARRRRRRRRRRR.......

Uh, no I'm not kidding. Look at that ninja clown...does he look like a frickin' criminal? By the way, if you read the article it says this was a campus-wide event happening, so it wasn't like some random weirdo running loose. Notice that no one else did anything...not campus police, students, faculty, no one. I suppose cops should jack up all the kids on Halloween, too. And they just didn't "apprehend" the guy, they draw their fucking weapons on him and knocked his ass to the ground, all because he was looked and acted "suspicious". What if he didn't stop and they couldn't physically catch him? Were they going to shoot him just because he was wearling a fucking ninja costume?!

It was an event put on by the United Methodist group on campus, and not some university sanctioned, campus-wide event. For all we know it could have been half a dozen people participating in the event. Even the student newspaper had to explain what it was about.
How often do you see campus cops wandering around campus? In my six years of college I bet I never saw campus cops on campus during the day more than a handful of times, professors usually stayed in one building all day, and who knows what the hell students might be thinking.
When law enforcement officials who are on a collegiate campus doing a community training project see someone on dressed all in black, covering most of his face with bandanas, peering around corners and then running what the fuck do you think they are going to do? I would characterize the kid being suspicious based on his dress and actions.
Maybe you can point out to me where in the article it says they "knocked his ass to the ground?" A knee on the back of the neck may be excessive, but you were not there and there is not enough information in the article to make a judgement. For all we know the officer may be following rules established by the ATF.
Again, what the hell do you think the reaction would be if the kid had just killed someone and it was known the ATF had not done anything because it was not their jurisdiction?
I expect by your reaction to this you will be carrying the flag against racial-profiling on this board from now on.

I'm with Mili on this one. Just going on past experiences, any kid who is participating in a pirates and ninjas gathering probably isn't going to give the cops a hard time. It was probably a case of some hardass cop finally getting his chance to shine and sticking it to someone who really wasn't going to give any trouble. Just seems like kneeing on the back of a ninjas neck is a little overkill.

the point isn't that they found out he was a doofus after the fact...but that he could have been some kind of terrorist or serial rapist or just some asshole who broke into a computer lab and stole some shit.
just because he looked like a retard in a costume after they pinned him down doesn't mean he couldn't have been one of those people i mentioned above.
