Talk about a bunch of dudes with fragile egos getting their feelings hurt because the man has the gaul to question their authority and demand their supervisor. That’s such limp dick behavior and is a fucking disgrace. Even if the cops were in the right for pulling him over (not having your headlights on? Really?) that’s just ridiculous.
Cameras “can only capture what can be seen and heard,” the sheriff added.
Don’t believe your lying eyes.
And ears.
Dudes gonna make bank when this goes to trial. But I hope those bitch ass pigs go to jail and get fired.
How does having your headlights off in the rain justify forcing a motorist out of their vehicle?
This is why cops in my region have body cams; and “my cam wasn’t on” or “my cam broke at just the right time” is a very bad look.
But they don’t use it to make sure they don’t mess up: they’re using it to show they did everything right, so someone was advised of their rights, the state of everything is known, etc.
But, not in America. American Cops Are (I’m guessing) Bastards.
Well, you see, it was a combination of him being black.
Prior events shouldn’t matter. There’s zero cause to punch a suspect that isn’t an immediate threat.
Someone grab the Family Guy meme so we can show how much of a threat he was.
I feel we need to update it though. Like at top should be " He was a great father and loved god!"
The bottom should be “STOP RESISTING AND PUT THE GUN DOWN!”
They try to claim he reached for a knife on the floor, the video is pretty clear in the fact that he is no threat and isn’t reaching for anything from before the window is broken till after he is dragged out.
In fact, it’s very clear his entire intent is to try to make it impossible for them to claim he was reaching for something. And they still claimed it… like, if he had complied and reached to take off his seatbelt, they probably would have shot him…
Yea but did you notice he’s black? What are they supposed to do? Not brutalize him?
The sheriff said the cellphone camera footage from inside the car “does not comprehensively capture the circumstances surrounding the incident.”
Bullshit.
As always, ACAB.
That and the following quotes are just over the top. The cop states it so plainly I can just hear how he actually believes this. It’s not the same reality I live in.
And they punch like a bitch.
Lol.
Guy was calm as could be and bitchcop suckers him for absolutely no reason.
Guy took it like it was a kiss from bitchcops’ mom.
Dude handled it like an absolute champ, but the sad thing is, he knows being black it’s his only option. You saw how they treated him for absolutely nothing, now imagine how much they would’ve escalated had he done a single damn thing more …
Which is why I don’t understand where the fucking 2025 equivalent to the black Panthers are. This was the whole point, follow cops with guns and make them uncomfortable abusing black citizens.
The CIA took care of that with drugs and gangs.
reagan did the most damage, he was the reason for amssive gun control in california, he was scared of the black panthers, being the racist he is.
Its difficult to not feel chills watching this scene from Panther.
But yeah the US was very happy to violently put down any form of organized black resistance. (fun fact: the bodies of the children who died in the MOVE bombing were donated to universities, without their families’ knowledge or consent)
