The major problem with Police as I have said before is the lack of professionalism. When you have to use force, use only the amount necessary to neutralize your target up to and including deadly force. Once you have him aprehended, detained, neutralized or whatever you want to call it, then there is no more need to keep whoopin his ass. In other words as soon as the guy was laying on the ground unconcious you give him a swift kick in the nuts...if he is unresponsive then you do not need to keep whaling on him. If he was responsive you just made sure that he was unarmed and you can proceed to putting the jewlry on him. If he resists... hit him again. In other words one blow per instance of resistance. Officers in these situations however get too emotionally attached when one of these idiots hurts on of their own and the just excessively beat the man in a vigilant fashion. Obviously this is excessive and wrong because emotion has taken over.

I would imagine it being really difficult to keep emotion out of it. Imagine someone putting someone like your kid or wife in danger and really hurt one of them, if you used force to stop them, would you be able to stop that easily? Cops are BEST FRIENDS and have almost like a fraternity...a brotherhood. When one is in danger, they all take offense...same reason all those cops and fire fighters responded to the world trade center attacks from across the country. They didn't even know each other, but put their lives on the line for one another.
Don't get me wrong angry, I totally get your point, but I think the human factor takes its role and it's hard to be a machine in those instances.
