        Comments in this thread claiming unarmed guy with his hands up stepped toward officer to cause this, I expect that from cats, not police.

        They didn't watch the video because he actually turns to face the officer

        They aren't looking for anything. It could be police tackling a 74-year-old blind lady sitting at a bus stop and they'd find fault with her.

        He didn't assault the officer in any way still no justification.

        "Trying to get around him" ... takes a step forward into the cops face. Okay...

        So a cop (with a gun) is scared of a man (with his hands up) taking ONE step forward? The way you people try to justify shit is hilarious

        This cop's mind is badly warped and he needs psychogical help. Assaulting this man for what reason? He needs to find another line of work.

        It's demonic that other cops protect, lie and shield animals like this. They're all complicit when they do.

        White supremacists have infiltrated American law enforcement. The FBI talked about this openly in 2006. Makes my heart, soul and body ache.
