Philly's finest in a candid moment
Eventually, one of these days, cops will begin to realize that their flip-outs, tantrums, rampages and general acts of misbehavior are increasingly likely to be caught by somebody's camera.
I'll admit, though, I'm a bit puzzled as to how these Philadelphia enforcers of law and order didn't figure out that folks in the helicopter hovering above them just might be taking an interest in the beating they were laying on three suspects.
Most of the officers on the scene have been pulled from the street.
Update: The video has been pulled from YouTube for copyright reasons, but can be seen at Fox 29 here.

Its not likely they will figure it out. They havent even figured out that this behavior is what gets more of them shot. They dont exactly hire the high IQ types for the job of cop. I was reading the user comments posted by cops on ratemycop.com over this incident. It was very revealing to see the mindset that leads to this sort of thing.

mirror?
YouTube yanked the video for copyright reasons, so I added a link to the original footage at Fox 29.
