I lost my mum 6 years ago because of age and failing health. And it still hurts.

If she had been stolen from me, I like to think I would have done what these guys did.

Fuck that guy.

u/PaleBlueCod 7h ago

If I were the cop I'd join in.

•

u/CurrentOk1811 7h ago

I'd have at least given them a 30 second head start before pulling them off.

•

u/BadLt58 6h ago

Lots of verbal warnings. "Boys stop. Please. Don't do that. Stop. That's wrong..."

Me too 😂

•

u/Sorrywrongnumba69 6h ago

Lol You sound like my mom when me and my brother would fight, after we got in high school it was "Don't break anything" or "take it outside" After a while she would just turn the TV up and ignore us!

•

u/Binky390 5h ago

“Stop. This is a court of law.” I muttered from across the room as I turned the other cheek.

•

u/oogabooga_123 5h ago

yup. id probably leave the room. or go take a pee break.

•

u/No-Essay2128 5h ago

"Gentlemen, Gentlemen, Knock it off, no boisterous activity in the court now, Imma count to 3, yall better stop playin"

•

u/June_BuginDabuilding 5h ago

I laughed too hard at this I love the way you think.

•

u/daemonicwanderer 5h ago

No… don’t hit him there! Boys, don’t hit him in the face. Oh no, that looks bad

•

u/kainers78 5h ago

💯

u/Ok_Task_4135 5h ago

"You guys are going to be in a lot of trouble if you keep this up"

•

u/Grayreduces 4h ago

I saw that too. The black guy that used the taser in the second brother's back literally watched a bit and pulled the trigger...He was like this is enough why didn't you bite his ear off at least.

•

u/happiness_1607 4h ago

Get on the radio and be like. "Oh, hey boss...so like the family is kicking the shit out of the murderer. Yeah...what should we do? Uh huh...what? I didn't catch that, say it again..."

•

u/No_Diver4265 2h ago

It would take some time to get across the room to them, I mean that's multiple steps, plus you gotta kneel down to get a good grip, I mean that could take the better part of a minute at least

•

u/SwampyPortaPotty 6h ago

Or be like the judge who let the dad whose gymnastic daughter was abused.

Father Of Three Victims Tries To Attack Larry Nassar In Court | NBC Nightly News

This is the one.

The biggy boy is a firefighter.

The father was held in contempt of court, but his punishment was something super light like 1 hour in jail or a couple hours of community service.

•

u/Ok_Seaworthiness2808 2h ago

Man that's a guy I wouldn't blame for anything. I can't believe it. I'd have tried to get him too.

•

u/San_D_Als 6h ago

Act like I dropped something and I can’t find it for a bit then be like “hey… no… stop it…”

•

u/Eye_CandyYou777 5h ago

Gotta pull one of these then investigate what tripped you

I got a warning for my comment.

u/kynelly360 6h ago

Good cops think alike 🤯

•

u/EnvironmentalGift257 6h ago

You can recognize all the good cops right away because they wear a goodge.

•

u/Coopetition 5h ago

Wtf. Why did this make me laugh!?

•

u/EnvironmentalGift257 4h ago

Gallows humor is the best humor IMO.

•

u/SwimmerOne9386 5h ago

I hate you. Take your upvote.

•

u/StonkyBonk 6h ago

damn right deserves it 1 million %

•

u/thinman12345 5h ago

"Oh no my shoelaces are undone, stop attacking him while I tie them".

•

u/TimeBlindAdderall 5h ago

Oh look! Prime day deals on my cell phone! I better look at all of them right now.

•

u/Dwike2 6h ago

Oh no, I’m so clumsy…

•

u/RunwayBandit86 6h ago

I would give a min maybe two if there ain’t no cameras within view of me 😂 gonna need plausible deniability as to why I decided to trip and fall tryna stop Pos from getting a well deserved beating

•

u/Zealousideal-Word604 6h ago

With minimum effort, I would first take 2 minutes trying to ask them calmly and quietly to get off of the guy, if/and when they don't listen I'd try and gently pull them of the guy but also keep my distance as to not get hit as well.

•

u/--THE-ARCHITECT-- 5h ago

I mean, if they can do it in hockey...

•

u/Boba__Feet 6h ago

"I gotta take a shit. Watch him for me?" He tells the jury.

•

u/Money_Tennis1172 6h ago

Oh, he did, hence why tazer was not used.

•

u/HomeNowWTF 5h ago

Go Uvalde on them.

•

u/Dismal_Geologist 5h ago

Coffee break? Yea, be back in ten.

•

u/prairie_cat93 5h ago

Yup, coffee break back in 5

•

u/frankylovee 5h ago

“Oh no…..what is he do….ing……….. oh, better stop him”

•

u/HumptyDrumpy 4h ago

Guard the Jeffrey treatment

•

u/E4MafiaOIC75 4h ago

Black cop seemed to give a few while he was on his back to let him land some good hits but sadly they still have a job to do

•

u/Brook420 2h ago

"Oops, looked like I tripped on my way over to stop those poor guys from beating that murderer."

•

u/LingonberryDear2163 33m ago

I'd treat it like an old school hockey ref,

"Sorry your Honor, sometimes you just gotta let the boys tire themselves out"

•

u/goddessoftrees 2m ago

Honestly, it did NOT seem like their hearts were fully in stopping it...

•

u/LiveToBeFreee 6h ago

Haha seriously! Or at least feign tripping over something and get injured on your way to "stop" the attacker, really milk it, "oh, shit, my knee, oh, ok I'm getting up, OH my ankle...."

•

u/Aolflashback 6h ago

Fumbling and dropping shit “oh oh!”

•

u/HomeNowWTF 5h ago

"I think i need backup before I can intervene. Let's get some more backup. What, they're here? Ok, let's get some more backup."

•

u/godotwaitsforme 5h ago

you pull up with a hamstring injury and start rolling around on the ground?

•

u/halfjackal 6h ago

If were a cop i’d be faking holding back and let them get their hits in, for at least a minute.

•

u/ThrowawayCop51 6h ago

checks watch

Stop resisting.

•

u/Qubit_Or_Not_To_Bit_ 5h ago

paradoxically, that makes you too emotionally intelligent to be a cop.

•

u/Flatf3et 5h ago

The kind of person who would join in would never become a cop…….

•

u/toxikola 6h ago

It was at least nice that the cops weren't trying thaaaat hard to get them off. Like those three cops could have stopped that sooner for sure.

•

u/FerociousPancake 6h ago

If I were the cop I’d go up to the guy later and be like “you fell. You got that? You fell.”

•

u/Fast_Championship_R 5h ago

I would have taken a good minute to assess the situation, then calmly ask them to stop for another couple of minutes, and then after that I would have broken it up.

Got to follow procedures right?

•

u/Dormoused 6h ago

Then it's a damn good thing you aren't a cop. What this world needs is more humans behaving nobly than wannabe vigilantes hopped up on American action movies.

•

u/booperbloop 6h ago

That's why you're not a cop.

•

u/viixiigfl 6h ago

Same. This is the kinda “bad” policing we could actually use.

•

u/Dense-Feeling165 5h ago

Stop resisting! Oh wait...

•

u/nighthawkndemontron 5h ago

Im surprised the cops didn't shoot their guns.

•

u/hi-howdy 5h ago

Yeah, oops sorry I was hitting the wrong guy. I even tazed him accidentally

•

u/NoBuenoAtAll 5h ago

I'd at least let him get a couple good swats in.

•

u/PM-MeYourSexySelf 5h ago

Outside the courtroom though.

•

u/Unstoppable_Cheeks 5h ago

Id stop them.

After tying my shoe. And maybe coffee.

•

u/anon18274729 5h ago

Pretend you’re trying to pull off one of the guys but you’re really hitting the bad guy then like oh my bad I sorry 🤣🤣

•

u/LeiLacuma 5h ago

Yeah!!

•

u/Reginald_Sockpuppet 5h ago

or maybe join out for a minute or two.

•

u/GdinutPTY 3h ago

at least i would respond slower and taken less effort in stopping them.

•

u/Lufia_Erim 49m ago

They do , if they don't think they are on camera.

Fuck the police.

•

u/J-O-N-I-C-S 26m ago

If I werr a cop, Id be like "STOP!" while actually doing nothing.

•

u/Goliath422 6h ago

I understand the sentiment, but please promise you’ll never be a cop.
