Seen that a couple years back. Boy, I'd hate to see the political and legal outrage something like that would cause in this country. Personally, I'm against the sue-happy culture in this country, but if I was in those boys' shoes, I'd be suing everyone/everything IN SIGHT.

Even if the police had some sort of warrant, that's a hell of a big mistake to make - especially considering that they just went straight for the car without warning or without giving the driver an opportunity to willfully stop for them. I don't care if it's SWAT.

In some respects, I actually do care more that it's SWAT because SWAT, especially, should be sufficiently prepared (more so than regular PD) as to not cock something up that badly. Unbelievable.

The crazy thing is, that they are elite cops. That is all. But they have no chains, and are known to be the most corrupt and brutal. I agree, they really drop the ball, and I personally would be pissed. Problem with them is that they wear masks all the time, so you can't ID them. Then the corruption level is so great, that you trying to sue them, might make them come to your house. Really a shitty situation for the first guys they pulled out of that Porsche.

Absolutely correct; the fact that this is an "Elite" police force makes the situation that much more appalling. That's why I said "if that happened in THIS country..."

I know modern-day Russia is a far cry from what it used to be back when it was the Soviet Republic, but, sadly, that's not saying much. The corruption and brutality in that country is awful. It's pathetic and truly sad how little the Russian government cares about their citizens and their "rights."

Oh, c'mon, that shit happens here too - was it a month ago or so when a dude in NYC opened fire on a guy who passed him on a promotion? and then the cops shot him... along with 8 pedestrians... (or was it 9?) it was on the surveillance videos...

Or, when the US SWAT got a guy, shot him dead just to find out that they had a wrong house... I think, it was somewhere on the West Coast... within a year or so... or when they got wrong Smith... you would think, that with a suspect's name Smith, they would do their due diligence...
shit happens... it just happens more often in Russia, as they don't give a shit about collateral damage - life is cheap there...

Cops in Russia drive Cayennes, MB, BMW, corvettes, other euro cars... this particular cop was probably driving a Lada (or a Focus, at the best)... they lost the X on the open road, and later ID'd the owner via the bosy shop...

The X6 driver is a total MORON, fog lights on, and could not lose a funky one-axle, two-seater thing called a police cruiser... that was pathetic!!! and finally got him!!! lol...

My wife personally witnessed an incident at a McD on Tverskaya, next to Ritz - she was there for a work lunch, when several dudes showed up from nowhere, all clad in leather jackets, hand guns drawn, grabbed a guy sitting at one of the tables, and dragged him outside and shoved him into a van, and then took off.. The whole incident took about 40 seconds at the max, and the people at the McD were so dumbfounded that they did not even scream or react otherwise... My wife had to make a report about that incident through our internal channels, as anything unusual happening in out presense must be reported...

Were those guys the good guys? or the bad guys? hell, who knows....
