This being racist is a stretch as the cop first to handlE him in video is black / maybe even mideastern. While that white cop was in process pinning suspect down with knee to back and side of neck there was a Asian cop standing guard . There is a fourth cop in the mix but I’m not sure of ethnicity . This is a great case of stupidity and cop-god complex , that’s all

So, you’re 100% positive that if a white man were arrested for passing a counterfeit bill, then resisted arrest, that he wouldn’t have been treated exactly the same way?

Really?

false he was being investigated for allegedly trying to pay at a local deli with a counterfeit $20 bill he was arrested and pinned to the ground b/c he allegedly tried to fight the police as they made contact with him


SO lets explore this. So he tried to pass a fake bill. Deli probably did not take the bill and he left. Deli contacted cops and cops approach man. What happens then? They say "Excuse me sir...we have some questions for you" and he attacked them??? If so he was mentally ill and it is a tragedy that did not require the cop to remain kneeling on his neck for the length of time he did....that's the worse case scenario for the dead person...he was approached professionally by a cop and he attacked the cop.

Of course that is not what happened. He was cuffed when he was sitting against the wall. The cop had one hand in his pocket when he was kneeling on his neck....he wasn't resisting at that point...if he was the cop was an idiot for fighting him with one hand in his pocket. The cop went to far, period, there is no question, and it should concern ALL Americans...

Negative.
But I am saying, based on that film, I certainly could not disagree with someone who believes that.

I'd say the same thing, at a minimum, regarding the Brunswick, GA case.

Just like with Travon Martin they use these events to pull them black folks back to the plantation and they fall for it every time. Whitey bad . .

Let’s not act like the video shows the officer struggling, at all, with this guy, while his knees are on his back and neck.... the cop had his fricking hands in his pockets, like he was just chilling, for fricks sake....

And the subsequent reverse angle video, from the outdoor cam shows the guy complying with officers after he was already cuffed as well.... already cuffed, already checked for weapons (you’d pretty much have to assume, since the cuffs were already on), and seemingly walking when and where prompted according to the video...

Good god almighty. A person is dead at the hand of the state without due process. It is a tragedy either way..either the officer killed the man out of self preservation and will have to live with that or he killed him simply because he was not the right person to be handed the power to make those split second decisions on the part of the state. It is not a small, insignificant event and should trigger a revamping of what we ask of police, what we give them to carry out their responsibilities. One of these cases is one to many regardless of the race of the individual....it becomes racial when one side pretends it is meaningless and the only person at fault is the dead person when it is over something as insignificant as passing a fake bill. We should ALL insist police have what they need to do their job and when they do something stupid like kneel on a mans neck for several minutes, after he is cuffed, and the cop has a hand in one pocket we should call them out on it. There is no justification for us allowing these situations to happen...we should insist on better police forces because society can not function without them.

Sounds like a deBlasionian. This rhetoric will ensure he will better the police department by attracting quality applicants. I bet applications by their officers are about to overflow at suburb departments.

I'm just shocked that the NRA is silent on the Breanna Taylor case. That's why I respect Gunowners of America more.

Probably, but the race baiters probably wouldn’t like the reasons this is true.

I’m not defending the stupid arse cop that had his knee on the guys neck for several minutes and think he should be charged with manslaughter at minimum.

But I have yet to see the video of what preceded his being taken to the ground. Was he resisting arrest? Cops don’t normally rough-up people who are cooperative.

And as far as you idiots claiming that the mayor is correct, just STFU because you’re just a speculating moron just like him.
