Msh...even you would have to admit if this was a white officer doing that to black woman, this video would be run over and over on every network in the country. We would have riots in the streets. Glad you posted it though

Why who knows since I couldn't get the audio to work to maybe hear a part of the altercation. Since he was fired I am sure we will hear the whole version when he sues that his rights were violated.

doing it to anybody , whatever race,,,,deserves someone be held accountable, which this cop was immediately from the article my question just involves trying to understand what justification the person involved may have felt he had I agree about the consequence...but if it were reversed...would there be more of a question about the "why"? Seems you don't want to admit there would be much bigger "consequences" if it was a white cop beating a black woman

One, there would be major investigations...by local and Feds(DOJ)into the whole department...the city would also be on lockdown...as for the cop...he would be facing jail time at the very least. I just love the way you keep avoiding the prevailing question...So I'll ask one more time...If it was reversed...do you think the black community would be out on the streets demanding justice?

These things have been done where it was a white officer doing something like this to a minority in my mind the same should be done to any one that abuses their position.

There was a prior assault by the same officer in the parking lot Both are disturbing IMO that new officer still on probation would have been a menace on the street, i'm pretty sure the police academy didn't teach him that.

perception leads some to believe that blacks get some special coverage,,,, Only when it is a white cop beating or abusing a black person

perception leads some to believe that blacks get some special coverage,,,, Only when it is a white cop beating or abusing a black person no,, but when a cop kills an unarmed black person with immunity yes

I'm open to being enlightened,,,if there is evidence to the contrary not LOCAL news, but national outrage

I'm open to being enlightened,,,if there is evidence to the contrary not LOCAL news, but national outrage In this case...if it was reversed...it would be the major headlines on every network for days...Even the Dictator in Chief himself Obama, would comment on this and stir the racial pot as much as he could.
