Madison county in northern Alabama has had a good number of bad cop incidents. I'm glad I don't live there anymore. But this is the right outcome.

It was a good Yoko Otoshi, cant argue with his judo, should have been in the dojo, and not on some innocent old man on a sidewalk tho.

It's about time one was finally charged with abuse instead of being put on paid leave (i.e. paid vacation/holiday).

For reference, here's what the officer is being charged with: http://codes.lp.findlaw.com/alcode/13A/6/2/13A-6-22

There doesn't seem to be hooks in the next level up (2nd degree assault which would be a bump to a felony) for the seriousness of the injury you cause unless you intended the serious harm or you used a weapon (or, ironically, if the victim is a cop.)

Asshole threw the guy head first into the ground.
That was guaranteed to fracture his cervical spine.
Then the cops are too fuggin' stupid to realize it.

In this screen grab the guys head is out of frame.
His spine is parallel to, (and behind), the cops arm.
The cops hand is at his shoulder.

I can argue with it: It sucked.
EVERY instance of Yoko Otoshi in drawings and videos I found, show the thrower's shoulders going down first, then the throwee's shoulders follow him down. That was the opposite of what the thug-with-a-badge did.

If your shoulders hit the mat first all you did was probably score ippon upon yourself and lost the match if the referee had any inclination that the other person had any control over you also. Source: I am a USJA certified technical official. Yoko-Sutemi-Waza Covers side sacrifice throws. Even if you did not land on the back but you showed control and speed you would at least get something out of it if not a full ippon.

Aren't you supposed to control your opponent, versus hurling him head-first into the mat?

Well, we can argue with yours. It's nothing like a good judo throw of any kind.

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

Judo the modern sport, and judo the way it was historically used in combat are two different things in terms of the reason it is used. As I stated the first time although it was WRONG AS FUCK for him to have done that, you can't argue with the results. In a combat situation it was effective as hell, broke the dudes neck. That's all I was saying. Ok back to the arm chair judo experts that suddenly appeared out of the blue.

OK, I see your point.
I was thinking of judo purely as a sport.

I was in Tae Kwon Do myself, but one of my instructors had been in judo, until a knee injury convinced him to switch to TKD.

Unfuggin' believable!
The dumbassed cop realizes the guy does not speak English, but is having a hissy fit because the guy won't obey what he is saying in *English*!

Yep. That's one motherfucker that doesn't need to be a cop.

Of course all of this could have been avoided if we just required all cops to learn all languages know to man so that way they can communicate with anyone who comes to America.

That is the answer! Fire all cops that can't speak every language know to man to include Xhosa!

I was unaware that any law required all tourists, visitors to the US, or even residents to be able to speak "American". Could you point me to that law? I'll want to be as accurate as possible when I advise my European, Asian, and African colleagues that they are not welcome here, and let them know they should spend their vacation dollars elsewhere where they are more likely to not be assaulted by the police.

It seems clear to me that this is yet another case of a person who is committing no crime and posing no threat being needlessly assaulted by a thug officer. "All this could be avoided" if officers were not encouraged to think they are entitled to bully anyone they wish, and act as judge, jury, and sometimes executioner because their inner "sheepdog" felt the "sheep" was not acting sufficiently subservient.

Well yeah, that's one solution. Seems to me that it'd be easier just to remind the cops not to commit aggravated assault on people just because they don't speak english.
