    I kid you not. Yesterday the victim in this assault, Anthony Wall, who was choked by an officer who weighs over 350 pounds, was found guilty of resisting arrest, and the officer in the arrest, Frank Moss, who is notorious in NC, was found not to have used excessive force.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/994594065919324160 …

    That is Anthony Wall, in prom clothes, being lifted off the ground and choked by a Warsaw County police officer @WaffleHouse. He had just taken his little sister to prom. And yet again @WaffleHouse called the cops. Anthony, of course was unarmed & non-violent. This is assault. pic.twitter.com/lLupZbfMcW

        “The judge gave Wall a 20-month suspended sentence and put him probation for 18 months.” Now he is “in the system” and if anything happens in the next 1.5 yrs he will be trapped in the criminal justice system. This system is designed to hold people down.https://www.google.com/amp/s/abc11.com/amp/fayetteville-man-in-waffle-house-arrest-that-went-viral-found-guilty/4650601/ …

        Peaceful protests and voting for politicians that “fight” for your values and justice for all. I’ve been bashed for saying this, but it bears repeating. ⬇️ All law enforcement officers are NOT like Moss. It’s up to us the public to also post the good officers. Please. ❤️🇺🇸☮️

        One reason someone gave me is good officers will not speak out against bad officers or their actions. As in they have each others back. That’s unfortunate for the public. 😠

        @TVietor08 Please stop retweeting Shaun King, please. If you feel you need to see the video, great. Black people don’t need this kind of visual. We know what it looks like.

        I don’t think they tweet it for the people who already know. I think it’s to continue raising awareness for those who don’t

        There are plenty of people, including Black women (from whom Shaun has no problem plagiarizing), who speak on these things. People need to pay more attention.

        What is the real overlap of people who listen to Crooked Media podcasts and don't know that there's a problem with police brutality? This is a rhetorical question btw.

        He was choking that boy in a fury. He’s got three times the weight on him. This is a travesty.

        Exactly, look at the anger on that cops face. That was not in any way about justice. That was about power. Full stop.

        In this case the police authorities aren't even trying to keep up appearances. They. Just. Don't. Care. And gee, I wonder which national politician helped open up this "safe space" for such public displays of racist aggression ?
