    The five former cops have given BLM and other anti-police groups a huge contribution. Liberals will repeatedly use these videos to defund law enforcement.

    In one way it’s nice to see people bitch when it isn’t white cops? The family of the victim at least tried to say don’t cause problems.

    The problem, as already mentioned, is others want to protest for the wrong reasons. Then the protest is about themselves and not respecting the wishes of the family but you know…that’s full circle to how respectful and thoughtful a lot of individuals are unable to be.

    Food for thought: if most people in the public carried themselves in a better light then le wouldn’t need certain tactics. Definitely not defending le blindly but it’s true. Society has become complacent with some really shitty behavior…I’m just saying…if people want the police to not be so militarized then stop acting like terrorist and crazies. Best way to put police out of work is to build a respectable community.

    The video being shown repeatedly in Memphis shows him being punched and kicked while his hands are cuffed. He was on the ground when tased. The police cams show abuse rather than resistance.
    That's why I'm confused. I have a feeling there is something missing from the story.

    Agree, and. Society has done more than become complacent, imo. The 'shitty behavior' has been supported, if not rewarded, by social welfare programs that take away any reason to become 'respectable' communities.

    This whole thing comes down to the African-American's inability (or is it unwillingness) to comply with instructions. The only times I've ever had a problem with L.E. is when I showed my ass. Whether you agree/disagree, with the instructions, is immaterial. If you don't show your ass, you're probably getting a ticket and getting sent on your way. Once you hear "get out of the car", you'd better start complying. If it means laying on your stomach on the cold roadway, YOU DO IT. Call an asshole attorney after the fact.

    Since this degenerated beyond that fairly quickly, all I see is a bunch of fat, out-of-shape, skill less bozos trying to subdue ONE guy. This is what we (collectively, as a country) get when we lower the standards in search of some mystical unicorn, otherwise known as diversity (and not just race. Gender, ideology, etc included). With lowered entrance standards comes lowered fitness and training standards. These knuckleheads have ZERO grappling skills.

    With the right skills, training, and mindset this would've been over in less than 5 minutes and this young man would be alive today.

    Do stupid things, get the reward. Typical for youth these days. Anybody hear what the kid died from, autopsy report? Nope? And, as usual, Chief is an idiot. Re: Dallas riot that got 5 cops killed. Wonder what our new Dallas chief did last nite?

    From an article I read:

    “He was an amateur photographer who loved skateboarding and watching sunsets darken the woods and ponds of his adopted hometown.”

    And resisting arrest.

    Indeed.

    Those "officers" look to be nothing more than thugs with a tin star.

    Perhaps you get the standard you set.

    "Sponsor" pretty much says all one needs to know about these useful idiots.

    "Hey dumb****! The cops are in jail. Why don't you go **** yourself all the way to Hell!"

    The MPD has repeatedly lowered recruiting standards during the last years in their efforts to become more 'diversified'.
    A candidate's residency, sex and race became important than his mental or physical qualifications.
