  1. First of all that's 5 officers against 1 person so he was already out numbered. They was not threatened by any means. Even the profanity was wayyyyyyy out of line. The way they spoke to him while already on the ground would scare me out of my mind also. SO ASHAME OF THESE OFFICERS BRUTALITY ON ANOTHER BLACK HUMAN BEING😭😭

  2. where's the beating video? Well first off, let's not make it a race issue. It is about several law enforcement and a "civilian".
    I don't know the full story why they stopped him. Did he not listen to prior orders? Did he commit a crime? Was it a regular traffic stop? Did he have a weapon? Not sure.
    But that was unnecessary force. And to be somewhat fair, the "civilian" did run away.
    Come on though. 5 on 1 with the aggressor on the ground? No need to act like so overly aggressive…

  3. He ran away from the holice and his car. They could've searched the car and found there weren't any drugs or alcohol. They could've got his license plate number and went to his house. But no, they resorted to the slave patrol mentality that the holice was established on. Putting innocent black men in jail to build amercia for free. WS/Colonizers can assimilate anybody from any race to carry out WS/Colonizer ideals. I don't have to be a policeman or firefighter to stop a crime or save some bodies life, even a racist's life. Prayers the Nichol's family and to all of the fallen. This has to stop.

  4. dude this is just like the stupid George Floyd thing, AGAIN ik the officers were really angry (not sure what for, maybe he didnt pull over or something) but like George Floyd he did not comply with their orders and he also thought it was a good idea to run away.

  6. BLACK people just refuse to accept that resisting arrest will put them in danger, they like to roll the dice. This video shows the jerk resisting, the reason he refused to roll onto his stomach was simple, he still wanted a chance to run, you can see he left foot braced sideways on the ground, which together with tensing or flexing his body to stiffen up, prevented several cops from turning him onto his gut. They COULD have made him submit, by punching him in the face, but they were not abusing him, and he got away. When the taser came out, and he bolted, the other officers knew they can't get in the way of the wires, so he got a free run for it. Nothing in this video was a mortal injury, the crook won this particular sequence. But if he's a felon with felony contraband in the car, he'll take the chance to resist and escape, to avoid going back to prison. Black people commenting aren't stupid, they're just low class and racist. White people who comment that this kind of interaction is bad, have probably never been arrested. And they're legit stupid.

  7. I need to make sure they stop hiring people that can’t handle somebody by themselves up higher and regular people. I don’t know what you’re doing and can’t fight or take down somebody by themselves.

  8. Just hilarious how this is the only video they show a body cam when you’re sitting there beating the kid over and over taking turns and this happens everywhere as soon as a cop hits power they do this all the time it’s everywhere if it wasn’t for the house that had the video camera nobody would know
