Beat the crap out of hundreds? Really?
It was constables Jean Claude Van Damme, Insp H. Calaghan and the evil sheriff from Cool Hand Luke.
The PD should have thought twice before hiring them on.

Could you provide a newspaper article, a video, names, or even an anecdotal evidence that that happened or are you just - unsuccessfully - trying to be funny.
Look to petros for an appreciative audience, but don't give up your day time job to become a comic.

How busy could thay possibly have been if they had tinme to stop and talk to the kid? Do their cruisers not have radios and laptops to call dispatch to send a cruiser who is available?
If they they were on a high priority call they would have drove right on by and not stopped at all.
Maybe if it was a white kid.....
No he isn't.
I like the idea that you flag down the police, and they tell you to call the police.
In response to post #96:
Thanks, petros, I needed that. A bit of humble pie is a very nutritious diet.
Could it be that the police might have had a call to something more important? You know, set by PRIORITY? Like a robbery? Or to a kidnapping? Or to a burglary? Or a theft of a car worth more than $10.79 (?) like the boy's bicycle?
I am totally overwhelmed, almost brought to tears by the power and potency of the article you quoted, supporting your argument.

Or maybe Tims had called to say the doughnut maker was going off shift and doughnuts were running low. :lol:
Will they? They have a lot in common with ****ing immigrants then don't they?

Why don't you ask those cops what was going-on, it's not like Regina doesn't have the highest incidence of violent crime in Canada and they had nothing better to do.
Hell, maybe the kid should have expected a special unit to descend onto the scene via helicopter to retrieve a bike.

CBC asked that same question but got **** all for an answer. It's in the article.Why don't you ask those cops what was going-on, it's not like Regina doesn't have the highest incidence of violent crime in Canada and they had nothing better to do.

The interesting thing is that the police have taught this kid an important lesson. No doubt, he'll remember it.
A lesson that cops aren't there for you help when needed?

Oh well... What would the police say if someone was getting stabbed or beaten and they were busy with an all points bulletin on a red bike.
I wonder if the CBC would be defending the police's actions in helping little Billy retrieve their bike instead of dealing with the very real and violent crime in Regina.

What real and violent crime was happening at that moment? Surely, the police would have a record of the violent crime taking that they were on their way to deal with, or do they not keep any records?
