The cops don’t know he’s a tourist who is simply looking at houses (and there’s no saying he wasn’t casing houses, BTW). That’s what they were trying to ascertain when they were questioning him. The fact that he apparently kept walking away/resisting them is what caused them to put him on the ground.
If the cops had more than a bird’s brain, they’d have made the connection. Doesn’t speak English = likely tourist = can’t obey orders which he can’t understand. Your defending those thugs is frankly beneath you, and I don’t know why you persist in doing so.
Time for them to have ten years to think about what they did (assuming they’re able to think at all, which I’m not convinced). And frankly no: I don’t think that we should prevent crime at the cost of harassing people who have the temerity to walk in an area rather than driving and burning gasoline like good little sheepsumers.
zOMG. He was looking at houses. Perhaps the nosy neighbors should be happy that someone thinks their homes to be worth looking at, and maybe engage them in conversation before calling in the cavalry.
