It's almost comical to read http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,11069-2541133,00.html about a British historian attending a conference in Georgia (US) to be wrestled down by five officers for jaywalking.
There's no argument that the guy is breaking the law for jaywalking, and the officer could do his duty. But the kind of violence involved is unjustified. I reckon his main offense was really in challenging this officer (jerk) to show his badge instead, when he was asked to show his ID. Those cops (men of the men) could not and would not allow another man in standing up to them.
I wonder how this officer treats his family at home, when no one is watching him...
