    On June 15, 2015, Breaion King, an African American elementary school teacher, was approached by Austin police officer Bryan Richter in a parking lot. The officer said she was driving 15 miles over the speed limit. As captured on two police videos—obtained by Austin American-Statesman and KVUE yesterday, more than a year after the incident—King was then body-slammed, thrown to the ground repeatedly and pulled violently by her arms, which were handcuffed and jerked in a 90-degree angle. Austin officials are investigating the case.

    About an hour later, in the back of the cop car, King was lectured by a different transporting officer, Patrick Spradlin, on why white people are afraid of black people. Specifically, their “violent tendencies” and “their appearance and whatnot, some of them are very intimidating.”

    I read about this yesterday. He certainly did over react. It was a speeding ticket, ffs.
    And she should have complied and not resisted...because again..it's just a speeding ticket.
    I just saw another story yesterday of a white man in Texas pulled over by a Hispanic cop for doing 50 in a 40 mph.
    He starts videotaping the cop and tells him he has no legal right to pull him over.
    So they go tersely back and forth and the cop eventually SMASHES the driver's window with his baton, yanks him out and throws his cam phone.

    These stops reinforce for me why I don't argue, l follow orders no matter how wrong they may be and l plead my case in court. (I have won or had tickets reduced every time). We have all committed traffic violations but a judge always will hear you out..cops not so much.

    Yeah I say the same thing.

    Don't even argue, they are looking for a reason to pop somebody. You just do your thing in court.

    That one caregiver and castile getting pop was waaay crazy. How are you going to tell someone to comply and when they do you shoot or act aggressive.

    Really?

    EXACTLY

    Peole always seem to overlook the whole resisting thing. Comply don't resist, in almost all these cases the person was running resisting or something. With that said the cop was wrong as fuck.


    have got out of around 8 tickets in the last six months from white officers by being courteous. Last ticket was a speeding ticket given to me by a black officer lol but you know what? I was wrong fuck it.

    Blame the media. All they ever show blacks doing is playing sports or being degenerates. They tell the Nation all we can be is an athlete,rapper or criminal or if we are real lucky we can be wrongfully imprionsed or killed by a policeman. Thats not just police mentality thats America’s mentality, cause its all they see, its all they show.

    We are pitited because we are seen as lesser, too stupid,to unfortunate and too oppressed to be anything but. A black man has been President of this Nation for 8 years and still the best a black man can be in America is a policemans statsitic.

    Fk the media and everyones crocidile tears and perpetuation of oppression by pretending to care about socioeconomic issues all in the name of self loathing and social media likes.

    I'm sorry but cops are TRAINED to be more skilled and professional than to be swayed by any media portrayal of Blacks.

    Let's be honest, if Blacks weren't on TV at all, cops would still be scared of us.

    Yall act like these problems started with the introduction of color TV.

    Get real.

    White people argue with cops all the time over speeding violations and guess what, most of them don't get body slammed to the pavement.

    Wanna know what Black folks want when it comes to the police?
    Treat us like the average White person, even if we don't immediately comply with orders.

    Is that really so hard for a police officer to do??
    I don't know where all of you live but here in the DMV you see way more public images of Blacks besides musical artists, athletes or criminals.

    The fact is Black people to this day face a disproportionate amount of injustice from the legal and criminal justice system, even worse if you're poor.

    That's not some media spin.
    Like Bernie Sanders says, it's a major social crisis and the civil rights struggle of our times.

    The media didn't make this shit up.

    Exactly! Cops want to say how they're professionals and so on. Yes, they are trained law enforcement professionals, but a lot of the crap some are doing is not only unprofessional... It's also illegal.

    FYI: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...lice-WRONGLY-arrested-help-arrest-quotas.html

    Low morale, insufficient pay. Another veteran cop breaks his silence to explain that black people are cited/arrested to fill quotas.

    ^^^^^ l posted that story here, Mikey ^^^^

    This is absolutely true. And the illegal perpetrators should never be defended.
    Now think too, how a police officer feels if a civilian is exhibiting criminal behaviour (e.g: michael Brown punching the cop and going for his gun) - a cop wonders why is that behaviour defended and protested as "hands up don't shoot"?
    If there is collective outrage from BOTH sides, by holding cops and civilians accountable for bad behaviour, it might bode towards developing some solutions.

    What's funny is people are holding up thugs as the face of the movement contrast that to the real rosa parks

    From Wikipedia

    Claudette Colvin (born September 5, 1939) is a pioneer of the African American Civil Rights Movement. On March 2, 1955, she was the first person arrested for resisting bus segregation in Montgomery, Alabama.

    Colvin was among the five plaintiffs originally included in the federal court case filed by civil , 1956, the judges determined that the state and local laws requiring bus segregation in Alabama were unconstitutional. The case went to the United States Supreme Court, which upheld their ruling on December 17, 1956. Colvin was the last witness to testify. Three days later, the Supreme Court issued an order to Montgomery and the state of Alabama to end bus segregation, and the Montgomery Bus Boycott was called off.

    For a long time, Montgomery's black leaders did not publicize Colvin's pioneering effort because she was a teenager who was pregnant by a married man; words like "feisty", "mouthy", and "emotional" were used to describe her, while her counterpart Parks was viewed as being calm, well-mannered, and studious. Because of the social norms of the time and her youth, the NAACP leaders worried about using her to symbolize their boycott.[1][2]

    Claudette Colvin: "Young people think Rosa Parks just sat down on a bus and ended segregation, but that wasn't the case at all."[1][3]


    Contrast that today where people are standing up for Alton sterling a man with five kids just trying to get by selling CDs out side of a corner store. Smh

    Bliss, I don't feel like discussing this w/ you, but that didn't really happen. :confused:

    We can agree to disagree though.

    I can't speak for everyone, but in my circle of close friends and family... I'm quite comfortable in saying that we all believe that ANY person who breaks the law needs to face the consequences, and they absolutely wouldn't defend a person in the example you presented. I have no issue with a police officer using necessary force to apprehend/subdue a resisting suspect. However, the beating because the suspect tried to escape (and was caught), and beatings to a suspect who mouths off and or just because... No, I don't agree. If the police officer is that thin-skinned... Perhaps he needs to be in another line of work.

    In the Brown case... My understanding is that it didn't quite go down that way, but I wasn't there to say otherwise.

    So as a Black man you only deserve to be treated like a HUMAN BEING by cops if you're a pillar of the community??

    If those cops were so scared of Alton Sterling retaliating with a gun, pin his arms. Punch him in the face.

    Don't take out your service handguns and fire five times.

    It's really hard to take you seriously Paniro.

    In one post you bitch about how the media manipulates public perceptions about what they should and should not care about, then in another post you're showing an Alton Sterling meme used to smear this dead man's character is if he deserved to be shot.:-?

    Why confront a suspect you can't handle by yourself if things get screwed??
    That was the first mistake this officer made.

    IMO Michael Brown probably needed to be arrested and forced to spend a couple weeks in juvenile detention, but if you care about human life, as a police officer, why approach a teen who's bigger than you and give yourself the only option to shoot him dead if he doesn't comply??

    It's hard to find moral equivalence between criminal accountability for cops and civilians.

    Not many people I know get away with a fraction that cops do.

    If Michael Brown was a White kid from the neighborhood that cop lived in, all things being equal I seriously doubt that cop would have shot him dead.

    You know what I love? How con-servatives are such sticklers for following the rules to the letter of the law ... until it comes to law enforcement and their treatment of black and brown folks.

    Then it becomes, 'Welp, he or she shouldn't have argued." Doesn't matter that the POC color has the right to question authority. Doesn't matter that the cop should not, ever, abuse his authority. All that gets thrown out of the window because the POC of color dared to question uncle LEO.

    Just reinforces what what we've known all along; cops are exempt from rules.
