Dallas Paramedics beating up homeless man UFC style.

He should have been a cop instead of a paramedic, then he would have had qualified immunity.

 

Just horrible and no excuse for that. Cox should have no place as a paramedic or even an LEO and the LEO on scene who did nothing and just allowed a trained MMA fighter kick a man while down and then try to fight him further should be fired also.

 

Here is a report based on this incident describing two others in 2019 and 2016.

"I do the things in my life because of Jesus Christ, he's my rock."

 

Funny thing I saw him and said what's up to him the other day in Houston. Guess he lives here but I brought him up when talking about the story that morning to co-workers.

Paramedic needs to be charged and have his medic badge pulled. Guys like that make the whole profession of FF/EMTs and FF/medics look awful. It's hard enough that the job takes alot out on you but to also have to deal with your own people that do stuff like that on scenes is terrible.

 

You had me convinced at 'Dallas'

 

Damn, this guy is a grade A *******. I would hold those around him accountable as well if they stood by and saw nothing wrong with what he did or even participated in it. There are many honorable EMS, LEO folks, don't let this shitstain give you a bad name. Self policing is a great thing.

 

It's douchebag bully bro culture. But it's nothing new, in fact, it's as old as people. It's just given focus now by the internet, social media and assbags like Joe Brogan.

 

This has been a problem in martial arts and the popularity of UFC has made it worse. In many martial arts there is a very strong emphasis on restraint and self-discipline. The problem comes with combining very dangerous and even lethal skills with the attitude that the only thing that matters is winning and strength is it's own justification.

You can really see it in that video. I have no doubt that the homeless man was causing problems and certainly wasn't cooperating with the authorities. From that basis there could be an argument to take him into custody but Cox isn't doing that and as EMT he isn't there to do that. He's angry that this person is making his day tougher and then feeling he has to prove himself by using his skills to ABUSE someone who is in no position to offer a fight. Not to forget that the homeless man was also tazed.

That's just shameful.

 

Paramedics arrive*

"Quick we need some medical help"

"Absolutely please step aside ma'am"

Paramedics:

 

That's the larger problem with our society. Profit > everything else.

Squid game !

 

The prior incident Bobrek linked is worse in my opinion. Resulted in that homeless person's death from a slow brain bleed. They mocked him for being unable to spell his name properly after being physically assaulted with existing trauma to the head. They assumed he was drunk. Took him to county jail. He died never receiving proper medical care that could have maybe saved his life.
