The guy in the wheelchair missing limbs. Why aren't his friends beating the crap out of that cop? I know violence is not the answer bla bla. But you have to protect your friends and family. Edit: the cops obviously don't care about a camera. They just keep doing whatever they want, it doesn't matter if you film them.
Namaskar, Thank you! I was in a no- word arrest ( aggravate kidnapping) in Victoria, Tx in May, this year. No one in the neighborhood came as I scream for Help. I was exercising my second amendment right. I was unjustly jailed ( Detained) for 28 days and faced Death several times. The Police charged me on 4 charges: Aggravate Assault on 3 Officers with a deadly but unloaded pistol. Resist, unlawful carry,… These police officers got protection from all their superiors, the whole city of Victoria. Only when the Good people of Victoria wakes up and learns the Truth, that Justice can be restored. That is why I am unable to seek Justice.
I am still under their court orders to wait for their indictment of false felonies charges. My story on facebook' s group is not open for public view due to my pending court orders. BnK
So untrue. Why must youtube allow this?
and ,taya. I keep getting unsubscribed.
thank god for cameras .they are creating a grand canyon crack in the system of blanket criminality for us. and showing the police are blanket criminals.
steven Janis, the presumption of all us being criminals and the presumption all cops are not? is Nazi germany.!!
if a cop can shoot one in the back from a phone call? you have decriminalized murder to protect the system.
so if the police are kept out of the real world to make the system work.? we have made them lords over U.S. true sovereign citizens.
i think people have to start having town meetings when these things happen, and have the appropriate authorities answer for these issues, (complete with video coverage of the issue). then, i think this stuff has to be publicized to the max on tv stations and especially social media. also the pigs that behave in these ways need to be exposed. (name, address, phone number, place of work, state and city. that also needs to go on social media. the only way to get pigs to stop this behavior is to shame them into stopping it. you know like they used to do to the johns who got caught buying sex from prostitutes……

Look at how well they altered the video. If I didn’t know the video was altered then I would’ve completely overlooked that scene.
Makes you wonder why it really is that police departments hold onto footage for so long after damning evidence is determined.
Cop should be ashamed of himself big tough guy smh
It's not just a racial thing either. I've met white people who've told me they were victimized by the police because they were poor. It's interesting to talk to wealthy or upper middle class people about the police and police brutality then to talk to poor people and ask them what they think about the police. You'll hear a very different viewpoint.
The police have been militarized since 9/11 and the Patriot Act. They have access to high-tech surveillance. To give people that kind of power is dangerous. There needs to be accountability, oversight. The 4th Amendment was supposed to provide that but it's been dismantled by the surveillance state.
Also I think that bully psychology is in play here. The kinds of people attracted to that job of police officer are going to be prone to bullying behavior. People of color, women, minorities, poor people, disabled people, etc., are vulnerable, and so they are also targets of these bullies.
We need also to look at how the police are currently being trained. That isn't discussed enough. It's easy to blame an individual officer, call him/her a "bad apple," but they are workers, just like the rest of us. Frankly, they aren't always paid well either. Maybe we should try to get them on our side (in terms of stopping economic inequality, that is.) After all, they're trained to be aggressive bullies then we blame them for doing what they've been trained to do. Why not blame the people in power who are training the police to behave this way? Just a thought…
I say again this has to stop.
The police officer was the judge and jury.
Politicians are thinking as long as Police prioritise they can do what they want with the rest.
Simple, solution. Poor people should stop using money, learn to become sustainable without money. Also, the poor should takes it labor, time, and money and move to safer countries…. We don't need money. Without money our system would fall. Learn how to live well without money… freehousingproject dot com | Great channel!
Basically this system is police state evolving into military control…but. How DO These Cops LIVE WITH THEMSELVES?
Keeping the poor in their "place" has become the purpose of the police. Only Bernie aims to deschedule cannabis immediately & vacate convictions. He also will address wealth inequality & promote the Green New Deal to provide jobs, decent housing & try to save our planet. If we continue to allow the 1% to buy our politicians, this kind of abuse will escalate.
Edit: if you want to believe you're "safe", watch the Miami police using random cars as human shields during their takedown during the UPS truck/jewelry heist. People died for being victims or just driving down the road. Jewelry loss is covered by insurance, UPS trucks are full of sensors. There was NO reason for the driver, a victim, to be killed. He leaves a mourning family, the cops get paid leave. It's clear who is being "protected" & it isn't US!
Thank you TRNN for these important stories!
Stocks n Bonds. Off the birth certificate n social security funding a criminal corporation. One thing they know is END GAME 4 a weak economy they so call up hold.
As always, thank you for the excellent and well-produced content. This was a VERY hard one for me to sit through, especially after hearing about Miami PD using occupied vehicles as cover and indiscriminantly killing that UPS worker.
I am a grown man, a veteran…and I wonder what about this country makes life worthwhile for the average black or brown person.
What about the U.S. is worth a black or brown person fighting and dying for?
I ask myself this question right here, right now and I cannot find one reasonable grain of thought to support it.
This country loves to hide it dirt in legislature and policy then happily live a lie before the rest of the world.
If Malcolm's words are true, that the conscience of a nation is the same as that of an individual, how can America sleep at night? If Dr. King's feelings are close to the truth, that he feared integrating into a burning house, what is the use of continuing to fight for equality in a place we are not wanted? …a place that would not exist with us (minorites) and a place that would fade away quickly otherwise.
Police are doing what they do, because people are not avenging their fallen family members.
Most poice love to abuse their power, and they need to get a taste of hell just like they put on others.
we don't need police officers anymore they always show up after the fact after the robbery after the shooting has happened so what do we need them for to make City Revenue please we pay enough taxes already we are 99%
But actually by them putting this certain Community in a inhumane category, The People really are treating Police in the inhumane category, its actually back firing on the Police. Most Citizens are turning on Police instead. Everyone seems to be building this Hate for Cops, Because they see The Truth. How long can Police keep living This Lie. Just to make a Community look like a unworthy Community?
COPS NEED TO BE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR THERE ACTIONS LIKE EVERYONE ELSE IN THIS WORLD THEY ARE NOT ABOVE THE LAW
It’s easy money the poor can’t fight back
Anyone ever wonder why tv pumps out countless cop drama shows and law and order like programming?
Syracuse, New York loves all your video's. Sad system how they mistreat their citizens.
I wish there were more people reporting this. Thanks to The Real News Network!
I wonder how many of these police are combat veterans? The military trains them to shoot to kill the enemy and no questions asked. The enemy has no lawful rights and is executed on the spot. Now when veterans come home they treat US citizens the same way. Citizens are seen as the enemy with no rights and the officer shoots to kill. The officer becomes the judge, jury and executioner. I propose that ex-soldiers do not automatically make for good security or police officers. They need special screening, and special training to undo their military training.
Invite more 1st Amendment activists to speak you they are in the front line
I’m sorry but the whole blanket criminology thesis sounds terribly flawed on it’s face.
