      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

          As a police officer this absolutely shames me. These so called cops need to be fired and charged with assault. Videos like these need to go viral and cops need to be charged. Maybe then this nonsense will stop.

          This boils my blood! I detest seeing a bunch of armed cowards ganging up on someone. Pummeling someone to the point of unconsciousness is no longer about the arrest; its a way of releasing their frustration and pent up hostility. Pure evil!

          I'm glad you saw that. Thank you for bringing these terrible cop encounters to everyone's attention.This Daniel Shaver video was particularly horrifying to me because the visual and audio were so clear and you could see that the cop barking orders at this guy had him terrified.

          These police officers are steroid filled thugs. They are not serving the law. These people should be checked for drug use & put behind bars immediately.

          When they are never held accountable and get away with murder why would they stop. This starts from the top and trickles down with the enabling.

          Same officers?? If not don't tarnish the good officers with the same brush. It's a uniform/job, but police are people too. Don't bring mass hatred upon a necessity. The officers involved in this assault should be dealt with, criminally, but unfair to blame all officers.
