"How were those officers supposed to know that kid wasn't going to sprout an extra pair of arms from his back and pull a gun out of his neck as he lay pinned to the car's hood?"
Christopher James,

Daniel Ziff,

"Why must we always focus on the bad cops instead of the 65 percent of police officers who would never do anything like this?"

"I'm sure those officers wouldn't have done that unless it was absolutely necessary in order to hurt the guy."
