This is why I'm glad we're not all carrying guns around in this country.
Maybe the beating would not have happened had the father thought the person could have been carrying a firearm.

Depends on the firearm. Restricted fire arms this is correct you are not even allowed to stop for gas. However a long rifle you can take it anyplace you want within reasons . IE you cant walk around a park with it.
correct^^^^Please get your facts straight. You can stop for gas, and not all long rifles can go any place you want within reason. There are long rifles that are classified as restricted just like handguns.
I stopped reading after the first line, you really don't have a god damn clue. It was not necessary to beat the rider after the fact, the danger to the girl was already over. The assault on the other hand had no end in sight. Simple right? Who am I kidding, you probably think that stomping the rider would some how magically heal the girls wounds.
Don't bet on that ....rage can do some real screwed up crap to your mentality,and if any of the partys were truly using their heads this might have been avoided but hey then this thread would have never been started and i would'nt be chatting with the fine people on GTAM
Who says the danger was over? Who says this tool of an idiot of a reckless incompetent isnt doing further damage by handling or moving the girl? Who says this can readily be identified by the father? Who says, given the circumstances, a father will have the emotional sensibility to not punch the rider? You have to be kidding me! I have seen it happen first hand, and I have seen a father lay a beating on a friend of mine, and it is NOOOOOOOOO LIFE THREATENING SITUATION!!!!
Now I have to rely on this nut job of a cop who started the whole mess to sort it out with his gun? No thanks! There is not a single shred of evidence the father would have killed the rider, not a shred, just a cop trying to cover his ****! There is loads of evidence of bodily harm and dead caused by 1 man to 3 parties...the child, the rider himself, and the father!
The rider should have been screaming sorry and begging for forgiveness, not yelling he is a cop so he can have an excuse to kill the father later. Why even bother stating he is a cop? To deter the beating! To pull rank! Him being a cop has no bearing on what was going on, except to shame him further for his insane reckless driving.
What does him being a cop having anything to do with the beating the father gave him? Just like an on-duty copy he unloaded into the father at the first sign of aggression toward him and tries to claim he thought he might pass out.
How many road side beatings have you heard about that have led to death? How many cop shootings HAVE LED TO DEATH? Beatings dont equal death! Shooting does!
Seriously, you guys act like you have never been in a fist fight! How many school fights ended in death? Is it normal to fear death when you're losing a fist fight? You all exagerate. And guess what, in the end, if the cop died.....it would have been less of a shame than the FATHER DYING!!!! Who now will raise and pay for this kid? Will the cop surrender a portion of his salary for the next 14 years to help fund the girl's growth?
The idiot cop should have taken his lumps like a man! Concussion, broken nose, whatever. I highly doubt this beating was as bad as you all think it was. On top of that when you pull a gun IT WILL BE AS BAD AS YOU THINK IT IS! ITS A GUN, DESIGNED TO KILL HUMAN BEINGS, THAT'S ITS PURPOSE! WHEN YOU USE IT, YOUR INTENTION IS TO KILL! A FIST IS NOT A GUN NOR A LETHAL WEAPON!
I don't disagree with that, but there are a lot of people with rage problems who seem to be able to control it when they want. A long time a go I worked at a bar as a doorman. I have seen some crazy stuff take place. Lot's of tough guys, jacked up who said they could not control their rage. Funny thing is most were able to control it long enough to find someone smaller than they were to pick their fights with.
To me, it sounds like this father new he screwed up by not paying attention to his daughter and decided to compensate for it by blaming and attacking the cop. I have 2 kids and if they were hurt in an accident my fisrt response would be to ensure they are ok. Nothing else would matter at that point in time.

one punch kills to the torso area only happens in moving bro. our hearts are well protected and if it was possible to kill with a single punch boxing and westling and mma would never happen.
permanent injuries i can see but death that's a really far stretch man c'mon get real not to mention the off duty cop probably had some sort of riding gear protection if he had the ability to crash and still get over to the little girl.

You are a beating going to keep you down and unless it some serious internal bleeding your not going to pass out. Crap load of pain but no death
I think I'll echo what a lot of people said, the cop escalated the fight too quickly. Usually showing a weapon will stop people in their tracks. Firing a warning shot will make 90% of the world **** their pants with the other 10% being hardened Taliban soldiers who are either too high or fear no man. Don't know the details but I feel that it may have been possible for the cop to not shoot the father.
