Shaun at some point don’t you have to do one bit of research before you put these things out there?
This video is INFURIATING. What are the names of these officers? What are the names of these random white men who join in off the street and begin kicking these men? Both assaults are criminal and people need to be held responsible ASAP.pic.twitter.com/HKg4FpNBtL
NYPD & Random Strangers Brutally Beat Two Black Men
Infuriating eyewitness video of what appear to be two NYPD officers and two random strangers brutally assaulting two Black men in the middle of a city street

Did it already.
-
What research did you do?
-
Jake, likely the same type of research he is known to do, which exceeds that of law enforcement is some places. His Charlottesville research is a prime example. Back to the man being beaten ... why do they believe they are legally granted the authority for blows seen in video?

Weird. I watch a guy attack a police officer and see random citizens assist the officer in arresting the attacker and I'm supposed to be mad at the good Samaritans. Had they not helped the attacker could have taken the officer's gun. But
@shaunking wouldn't care if the cop died. -
Definitely a response I would expect from somebody from Tulsa, Oklahoma
-
I back that response from NYC.
-
Cool.
-
I back it from Cali.
-
Isn’t it illegal for passerbys to interfere with an arrest?
-
If they interfered it would be illegal. Assisting is not.
-
Right, but from what i’m seeing beating a man who’s already on the ground is not assisting. I’m with the police on this one but *that* is gang behavior...

The lady in the video was saying that the men were asked by the police to move and they refused, and that those men are always in the area, then they attempted to assault/provoke the police and that’s why the police beat them up. Just repeating what was said in the video.

You do realize that a citizens actions doesn't change the policies and rules that cops are set to follow... After he is restrained and unable to attack the ADDITIONAL hits to the body with that baton are assault and those who jumped in also Assaulted. They acted off emotion

If they charged and we're then shot it would be easier to explain then them charging but stopped being beaten and then jumped...and the cops struck first after just standing for a moment
