Philadelphia Police Beating

[AGITprop]

15 police officers brutally assault 3 black men who are only suspects in a shooting.

Welcome to Amerikkka.

I only briefly saw this on CNN, and don't have much background information. Any contributions are appreciated.

PS Nowhere in police textbooks is kicking advocated, as they are properly armed with pepper spray and tazers etc.

This is fucking disgusting and I hope these officers have their throats slit in their sleep.

This should be in discrimination or politics, not in chit chat.

And fuck the police. That shit was horrible. And fuck all the pro-cops comments on youtube. Fuck those ethnocentric, ignorant, male white upper-middle class chauvinists!!!!

[AGITprop]

You're right, I should have posted it in discrimination.

Apparantly the cops thought one of them had killed a fellow cop a week ago, since he beared some resemblance to the guy. Which explains why 15 of them ruthlessly threw them out of the car, smashed them on the street, and beat the shit out of them.
Rage recorded Fuck the Police in Philly. No better time than to blast that shit.

Very important topic. It's been an explosive issue in my community over the last week. I'll send this over to discrimination.

I don't understand how the police thought they could get away with this?

Did they not know they were being filmed? I guess not.

I wouldn't mind seeing them lined up against a cement wall...

Cops are able to terroruse ethnics, without fear of prosecution.

Wrong on all sorts of levels.

When I read the headline I read, "pedophile cop beating" and wondered if some family had ganged up on a pedophile cop. Or if the cops suddenly had started beating up the right folks for once.

But it was just the regular tragic story.

Wow. Those pigs really beat the living crap out of those guys. Every bit of police protocol seemed to go out the window.
