    URGENT: These @MesaPD Officers need to be arrested & charged immediately. 33 year old Robert Johnson was not just unarmed & non-violent, he never committed a crime. They literally gave him a ticket after knocking him out. And never mentioned the assault. This video busted thempic.twitter.com/RlmcQN6t8y

    Police in Mesa, AZ brutally knock out an unarmed non-violent Black man
    33 year old Robert Johnson was in a local apartment complex in Mesa, AZ when police first searched him for weapons, then confronted him, and brutally assaulted him, knocking him unconscious.

        Just learned that the Police Department, the @MesaPD, that brutally beat Robert Johnson is the same police department that murdered Daniel Shaver in cold blood.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/939014159726870530 …

        The Brutal Police Execution of Daniel Shaver Sadly I've studied 100s of videos of American police executing non-violent, unarmed people. This is one of the worst I've ever witnessed. This happened in January of 2016, but the judge just released the video. A grave injustice. pic.twitter.com/O3UjLb3mZJ

        This is why we all need to kneel. Everyone needs to be part of this conversation and the solutions to fix this problem. We all lose when anyone gets treated this way.

        hmm I've been here on Earth 66 yrs, it has been going on for as long as I can remember but I do think it has increased as a result of tRUMP and his attitude... that $hit rubs off when one w/power says "have at it boys" it's a disgrace

        #ThereAreNoGoodCops Has anyone EVER seen a video where a mythical “good cop” stops their colleagues from beating or killing a civilian? I know I’ve never seen even one. They either join in or do nothing or cover up the crime. #ThisIsWhyTheyKneel

        It’s like they have severe inferiority complexes that lead them to abuse their authority.

        Sweetie, here’s a newsflash, just like David Clarke, Diamond & Silk, & Herman Caine would rather be accepted and seen as different than the rest of us so they defend 💩 they know is wrong, so do black cops! They’ll beat you worse sometimes than anyone to prove they’re loyalty.

        This is a tool of white oppression. British Colonialism did this time and again throughout history. Stalin did it in Central Asia. The Brits called it “customary rule.” They used ‘natives’ to try and avoid revolts. It’s insidious, barbaric manipulation.
