        This boy was late coming home, instead of being glad when he showed up, maybe to a spanking from his mom, instead police beat the crap out of him and arrested him, WITNESSES had to scream at them to take the 12-year-old boy to hospital.pic.twitter.com/DdaO3qHssR

        In older more sensible times all that was required was either to ride a bike, blow a whistle, listen, walk & know their station.

        A lot of the time it’s hard to tell the difference between a police officer and a criminal so this article is not asurprise.
