    Black Man Tased for Sitting in Public Space

    St. Paul cops allegedly taser and arrest black male for sitting in public space


    (Video below)



    UPDATE: Christopher Lollie, the man identified in the video claims charges against him were dropped. Read more here.
    A video showing the arrest of a black St. Paul man for allegedly sitting in a public space and refusing to give up his name surfaced yesterday, Aug. 26 — only weeks after the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager in Missouri re-sparked the national debate on race and police profiling.
    The video, shot by the man’s cellphone, shows his interaction with officers as he attempts to pick up his children from New Horizon Academy in downtown St. Paul. As the officers force the man to put his hands behind his back, he drops his phone and the video goes black, but the audio continues and we hear the man crying for help and proclaiming that his kids are watching. Both officers in the video are white.

    US cops are out of control. Thank God for smartphones. We will be seeing more and more of this unfortunately. And fortunately!

      Completely agree. It's not a RACE problem (though being black just compounds the problem). It's a police problem.The US fuzz think they are the Law. Long ago pass dem place as public servents and now dem think dem a rulers.

        It is a race problem the disproprotionalety of the criminalization is hand in hand with the use of force.You saw the YouTube clip about the car thieves one white and black.30 min a white guy tried to break into a car no police called,black guy not even 5 min guns drawn.

        The ganja laws are proof of this,tired to drive on the LIE with white kids blowing weed smoke in my face.

There is nothing morally wrong with this man smoking a spliff; the only thing wrong is that it is still on the law books," said Chevannes.

            Black TV Producer Detained

            Beverly Hills police regret 'inconvenience' of wrongly detaining black TV producer for bank robbery





            Friday started out as a good day for TV producer Charles Belk, who was in Beverly Hills for a pre-Emmy party. Then he wound up handcuffed and in custody for six hours because police mistakenly thought he robbed a bank. They have now sort of apologized for their massive oops.
            Belk detailed the incident and the aftermath on his Facebook page, which you can read by clicking here. His post has been shared more than 33,000 times.
            People are starting to share stories on his Facebook page of their own similar run-ins with police

                    It is all about race.

                    Their behavior reminds me of a plantation overseer.

                      Before the chokehold incident I asked a few coworkers if they aren't concerned that this country is becoming a police state. Most have that concern, of course there are those who hold the view that the police must be given room to do their work. I asked one if her rights were being violated if she would see it as the police doing their work? She didn't answer, I figured she don't anticipate her rights being violated.

                      I recall an incident in LAs Vegas where a couple walked up and shot 2 cops killing them on the spot. I am certain if that couple was of a certain race the police would be more alert.
