    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

    Officer chokes & slams unarmed, non-violent prom-goer at Waffle House
    This is in Warsaw, North Carolina. Anthony Wall had just taken his little sister to her high school prom. Waffle House called the police on the kids. And this is what happened next.

        To give you an idea of the sheer size of Officer Frank Moss, that's him on the far right of this photo. He has been brutalizing people in North Carolina for years on end. As soon as locals saw the video, they knew it was him. Said they've seen him do this before.pic.twitter.com/vWQXtfBDKb

        I think we have long since passed the point where it stopped being a question of individual officers and started being a question of institution-wide racism and brutality

        Me too. I agree there are more good ones than "bad apples", but this problem is systemic and, unless the good ones are willing to do something about it, it's only going to worse for everyone.

        Imagine a nurse not reporting another nurse that is beating the elderly based on race. We would lose our shit. These officers need to protect the people not their paychecks & let bad behavior go without consequence. They must trust we would have their back when whistle blowing.

        Yes!! we rly gotta make the non-gatekeeper left/alt media realise the importance of this. I don’t see it at the moment, they seem largely focussed on responding to msm and frequently crosspromoting with gatekeepers. Real problem :/

        But then it even applies to the few v small great alt media outlets and dont attempt to generate any revenue at all.. do they have a real motive to crosspromote with ppl they know are bad? My perception is these ones mb just dont see how critical it is to call out gatekeepers ?

        They can be persuaded IF we introduce it over the triple moating. This can be done by writing good quick intros which YOU are very good at...

        This Police Officer should be disciplined and made an example of what happens when unnecessary use of force is used on an innocent civilian.. He is known for his brutality and is still allowed to roam the streets of North Carolina. A bully with a badge = brutality.
