Aside from the high speed chase, was he physically resisting arrest which might be explain the choke hold and stun?

The punching and face dragging will likely be seen as excessive either way.

Finding more and more of these dated stories and releases coming out now than we did before. There is one and only one reason for this. To stoke racial division and promote leftist BLM style agendas

2019? Can we not have found some new footage from Rodney king?
The video was just released today, after a two year battle by the family for the right to see the video. So it's not like this is s 2 year old story that the NY Post decided to dig up

Sigh.

Until the police have regular accountability for their actions, these will continue.

Yes. This will be amplified beyond all reason. Yes. It will he used to stoke more CRT garbage.

But these incidents happen too frequently. And not just to black folk.

I believe the deal on that is a/the federal investigation was to be concluded before the footage would be released to the public. By all accounts the family and family's attorney were allowed to view the footage last year.

I try to take an objective view of these videos and ignore the talking points from either side. Objectively that video was fricked up and those cops were acting insane.

Even Chris Rock says everybody knows if you run from the police you’ve got an arse kickin’ coming when they catch you.

And to add some detail, it wasn't released today by State Police, the AP got an unauthorized video and released it.

The Hayride has made the argument that JBE squashed the video release (state police reports to him after all) since it would have hurt his reelection chances in 2019. There is no proof of that, but it is pretty fishy.

I'm so sick of these fricking retards. Yeah lady, they set up your son to run from the cops at 115 mph so they could murder him
Where did you get the 115mph from? The police report by the cops who beat the crap out of a guy then said he died because of a car accident?

Greene was driving his silver Toyota along a highway in Monroe, La., about midnight on May 10, 2019, according to his family’s lawsuit. The body-cam video shows trooper Dakota DeMoss chasing Greene down a highway at more than 115 mph, the AP reported.

“We got to do something,” DeMoss said over his radio, according to the AP, just before police caught to with Greene. “He’s going to kill somebody.”

Honest question, "comply with" what?
Which order at the scene did Babbitt disobey?
What warning was issued to her?
Which cop's life did she endanger?
Which cop(s) did she fight with?

You raised the analogy. It's moronic.

This was apparently an unauthorized release of police footage. This incident happened two years ago.

Don't care what the current climate is in the U.S. this is just flat wrong. Don't care what he did previously because once in handcuffs it is over. Pretty chickenshit to frick up someone that is defenseless in handcuffs on the ground.

This being 100% wrong does not affect my support for the police. The police in this video do not deserve my support, the remaining 99.8% of the police across this nation do. Time to flush the bad ones out one way or the other. Prosecute them for assault.
