        Brown ignored multiple orders to keep his hands out of his pockets, right? Cops shouldn't be sorry for shit.

        he was parked illegally, a ticket would have been good enough, if he had been white do you think they would have called in three more units and tasered him? I doubt it.

        Did he repeatedly put his hands in his pockets after being told not to do so? Simple question

        i only saw on that video them ask him once to remove his hands from his pockets, I just think that it should have never escalated to that point in the first place.

        Did you watch just what was posted by the media in a story or a longer video?

        just watched a longer video, when the additional officers showed up everything escalated. They were there for a half hour, the police escalated the situation, not the guy who got tased, I heard 2 times take your hands out of your pockets, he said yes hang on he wasnt resisting

        So he did place his hands in his pockets.. and he was belligerent to the cops. if he just respectfully complied, none of this would have happened.

        obviously the police department and the city feel that the officers acted inappropriately after investigating and interviewing everyone. The video is bad enough and those cops are going to cost the city millions when he sues them.

        What happened to Sterling is exactly what Colin was kneeling about...THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HE WAS KNEELING ABOUT...Not the military, not our institutions...kneeling for awareness of SOCIAL INJUSTICE AND POLICE BRUTALITY...

        Anyone surprised? And we have to hide in locker rooms to protest this kind of treatment?! Taking a knee is the least our troubles, trust me. Actually, it is the answer.

        Just wondering how many more of these scenarios happen daily in the US that never make it to the media.

        Encouraging people not to comply with police officers is an evil thing to do.

        I don't disagree that the officers acted inappropriately but I have to ask myself why was Sterling Brown parking over two handicapped spots?
