    When American police arrest mass murderers they don't act like this. Those men, though, are usually white - which garners a base level of respect - even for murderers in this country. This young teenager had a noise violation & the cop was ready to kill him on the spot.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/993594881967730689 …

    FURIOUS! Neighbors called the police because this teenage boy had on loud music. He never touched or threatened this officer in ANY way. The officer, Gary Thomas, was fired from @ShreveportPD last year after he was arrested for felony domestic violence...but got his job back. pic.twitter.com/h2iyDX7eEc

        Instead of trying to be judicious and responsible law enforcement officers, some think that having a gun and a badge gives them unbounded privileges to abuse and threaten POC.

        Even if we all retweeted one of these once a day, every day for a year, we’d still get the “bad apples” excuse.

        The officer should be charged with assault and battery plus the young man seems to have a good case for civil court.

        They treat white domestic terrorists with the upmost respect. Police never abuse none of these people because they are white.pic.twitter.com/Vy0Wee3f52

        That cop has serious anger issues. No way he should be trusted with a gun or fit to "serve & protect".

        While the cop is completely in the wrong, the neighbor is also the issue. Kid sitting on his porch listening to music and you can’t just ask him to turn it down? You call the cops? Shame.

        It’s unbelievable how police officers treat people of color. A noise complaint and they had batons drawn and ready to swing. Not to mention the way he was grabbing the kids arm. This is America people. Everyday something happens.

        How does a person get hired as a police officer with a felony domestic violence charge on their record? That should be immediate disqualification from even applying.
