Aug 2, 2009: Gangbanger Makeover
An L.A. gangbanger named Richard Rodriguez didn't want a traffic ticket, so he led the police on a televised chase that ended in him crashing the car, followed by a foot pursuit. Allegedly an El Monte cop kicked him in the head, so he's suing El Monte for $5 million.

hey, if the guy was kicked, and shouldn't've been, I hope he wins his case. just cause he's a waste of a human being doesn't mean we should break the law in our treatment of him. and at least if he looks presentable his looks might not be an issue in whether or not he was treated brutally by the police.

The cop says it's called a "distraction blow", and it's taught in the police Academy. I find that rather a shaky defense, but that's up to the courts to decide. If the cop is guilty, he should be punished. But there is no way in hell this guy deserves $5 million.

Several people hurt, cars damaged, running from police and he's the victim? El Monte should be suing him for damages and wasting their resources.

Radio guys were talking about this nonsense last week as it related to Plaxico Burress shooting himself in the leg while playing at being a gangbanger. He naturally showed up in court looking like a Rotary Club Secretary. Their suggestion was that you should be dressed the same as you were when you got picked up. All that said they've got to have a fair trial.

If he's having a major makeover they should fix his ears and those big red splotches!

funny that the cop kicked him in the head when said cop has that handy-dandy taser at his disposal. Sounds like cop lost his professional "cool".

Just looking at his pick makes me want to kick him in the head.... as a prelude to kicking his ass. Fucking punk.

Growing hair will not help much. It isn't the crop that needs attention, it is the subsoil.

Check out that hairline--apparently the lawyer's going to give the guy hair plugs while he's at it.

Jeez, I hope that when the cop kicked him, he hiked up his trousers, and, in his best Jackie Gleason voice, said "That's called an 'attention getter.'"

Let him rot in jail. He should be popular with that tat on his upper lip.
