    This is #CharlesToney. He was brutally beaten while handcuffed by @HamCoTNGov sheriff #BlakeKilpatrick. Charles was then charged for his own beating. Blake is still employed. We demand the charges against Toney be dropped and Kilpatrick be fired and charged. 423.209.7000pic.twitter.com/7KDWOHHNxH

        Idc what anyone says about this a cop should not beat someone this bad. Resist or not, you’ve been trained for this shit. Where was his taser, or pepper spray when this was happening. Punching someone to the point they have multiple injuries is straight abuse. Be professional!

        Blake Kilpatrick should be fired and then booked into custody for this outrageous beating. Police will continue to suffer from their bad reputation as long as they condone and provide protection for bad cops. They are here to protect and serve us, not beat us.

        I keep wondering when the news stations, major, national and local, will start covering these stories where black people are victims the same as when they are the accused. I wonder what it will take?

        I sure do get tired of seeing black men used as punching bags or for target practice.
