Not this case particularly, but when moving to different countries, the kids should tell all these to their parents in advance. Couple of phrases in English, how not to behave or draw attention, how to behave with cops (unlike in India where you can argue with them, in US it is better to comply immediately and not make any sudden movements and show your hands at all points). Most probably the guy was reaching for a phone to call his son or for a written note but the police mistook the gesture as threatening. Of course in cases like this when police behave like @ssholes, no one could do anything.

So typical of desi dudes to judge other desi dudes having no clue about raising a child. Even with any babysitter, nobody can enjoy life having a baby. Raath ko koi babysitter nahin utha hain, doodh pilane ke liye! Did you see the video? He was just walking by and not nosing around. This is also typical desi attitude to find something wrong about desis and the white dudes have a reason for any crime.
And surely old grandparents would love spending time with their kids and grand kids

If you are talking about war torn , terrorist attacked place i can understand. He was not reaching for anything. It was all a story cooked up in the process. He was just standing or walking on the sidewalk which he has the right to do. If the cops don't have basic IQ to assess whether someone is a threat or not , if so who he was threatening? then he should not be a cop. If someone is going to bring down somebody brutally based on "suspicion" from a paranoid f***tard then then he does not deserve to be a cop. That is bad police work which is why he was fired and they are going to sue his ass . That old man did nothing wrong. You cannot prepare your old man for these kind of f***ed up scenarios .

States is a pathetic place to live...a back packer country compared to great England :two_thumbs_up: All hail queen :hail:
Depends on where you live.. Down south has some of the most racist people and white supremacists you can hope to see.

Way to profile and stereotype while complaining about profiling and stereotyping. Check out some of my earlier posts in this thread that refute this nonsense. It ain't the 60s no more, guys. And New England, NY and California are no bastions of racial tolerance.

Yes, he was responding to a complaint from neighbors that they were seeing a strange guy walking around for a few days. He should've had a chat with him, maybe given him a written warning and let him go. Cops are on the edge these days. Having said all that, I contend that this is the exception, not the rule. I have lived in the rural South for 22 years and you cannot be more wrong about your stereotype that racist rednecks exist more here than any place else.

And New England, NY and California are no bastions of racial tolerance.[/quote'] One day i was speeding missouri.. Probably 10 m above. I was with my wife. First question the cop asked me was are you running away from anything? are you wanted for something? .. what sort of a f***ed up question is that. This happened 6 or 7 years back. Racial profiling is integral part of police work. Just that they won't admit. They use variety of parameters to assess a threat. Race is definitely one of them. That is why black related mishaps are more prevalent. If you are not caught on camera you can cook up a story. No matter how dirty a cop is they would stick for each other. Even in this incident they have dismissed him and arrested him. Look at the bail they set for this guy. 1000$. He just walked away. Suddenly you can hear all these rednecks defending him "you know how tough the police work they die every day blah blah.." They grant total license to behave like thug. One guy wrote "Safety first then later" defending the attack.. i was like WTF.

Anecdotal, of course. I have lived in this country for over 22 years. The only time I have had authorities profile me was in NY, followed by Baltimore, MD. But, can I color NY as being the worst state for profiling or racial stereotyping based on that one incident? Of course not. I have had 5 speeding tickets - all in South Georgia, rural Florida or deep rural agricultural North Carolina. I've always been treated with respect by the police officers, and I returned the favor. So, my 5 experiences more than balance out your one. Which is why we shouldn'tt get caught up in anecdotal data, but look for real data. And when the NAACP President says NY is the worst wrt racial profiling, I'll take his word over yours or mine. My point is that the South is no worse than the other states in this regard. Jumpy cops are jumpy cops - in all 50 states.

Not just cops. Overall people. If people are like that cops who are one of the people is more likely to be so. In this case a citizen made a complaint out of paraonia. It may not have happened in some parts of the country. Just google top 10 most racist states in USA.. Lists may vary a bit. But overall some southern states would feature in almost all lists.

gKFIBh8Sv5o One of the idiotic police officer said he doesn't speak English, and after that all 3 of the fools kept on asking him questions in English. Are police officers not trained to communicate with people not speaking your language? Is the only way to deal with foreign people to pin them down? They also completely searched the guy and found nothing (before slamming him). Then, what was the need to use such disproportionate force? He had no weapon to cause any harm and if the police officers thought this guy would harm them unarmed (or run away), then these officers have an inferiority complex in terms of their physical strength. The police man says stop jerking away. The video shows no jerking... Also I want to know who the idiot was that called the police. In the call he said the man looks like 30 years old. Does this skinny senior look like 30 years old? And what kind of a paranoid, racist man is he? Why is he scared of a skinny senior who can't kill an ant? The same incompetent, racist fool was afraid of leaving his wife in the house alone while Patel was around. What the hell? Does he think this 57 year old would sexually assault his wife?

an off topic post - So typical of desi couple to have a kid and then invite your parents to the US to act as a babysitter while you enjoy your life ON Topic - Big case of culture difference. We are nosey ppl and for someone not at all used to US culture adn importance of privacy this is a mistake to make. I blame the son as much as the cop
Are you kidding me? How is it your business why the grandfather came here? How is the son responsible? If a senior comes to a foreign country, of course he will be curious! Of course they will go out and look at these new structures. How the hell is the son responsible?
Yes of course' date=' police killing unarmed men all over the world is absolutely necessary. Some human beings are sick and glorify in that these incidents cannot happen to them. As long as it's others, the price for shop lifting should be instant death with police acting as judge jury and executioners[/quote'] Killing a 20 year old tall and well built bully (who punched the police officer and stole using from from a store right before the incident) it justified in my opinion. It is also justified in the eyes of the law and the grand jury. I doubt the poor officer there had any racist intent, and even if he did, Brown needed to be killed (or else the officer would have suffered some serious harm).

Wish him a speedy recovery . Alabama police should learn from Indian police on how to be civil ,respectful and not use excessive force.
Dude, cut out on the trolling. If you are here only for that, find someplace else

Are you serious? Stealing from a store is DEATH penalty now? A young man in the prime of his life? There is a reason even death penalty for terrorists need to be proved in the strictest of term in court, takes years of court hearings and the defendant is given all chances to save himself. Even after that multiple appeals can be filed And here you are justifying taking of a life for stealing and hitting someone? And you call the officer poor when he will live a happy life while the 20 year old is cut in the prime of his life? It is a seriously fecked up mentality to have when the price of a street brawl or resisting arrest is instant death. I pray to God you will never be put to such circumstances. Because I know I have. In teenage years I have been involved in street fights in Ranchi. Got into arguments with cops. Thank god I was not in the US or I would be killed for such crimes and people like you would justify it Teenagers all over the world involve in street fights. Young guys do stupid things. Even argue and fight with cops. Only in America is it punished by instant death with people supporting. And I see a lot of such justification by some Indians for some reason when for all they know, they will be the ones in similar position any day.

In that case there is an insincerity in your sympathy. Why? Coz he is an Indian? Who would even choose this occasion to slight Indian police. Only Pak a.holes would think that way.. Hope you are not one of them.
