    The only reason this officer was fired was because his brutality was exposed before the world. This literally happened 6 months ago and police were content to do absolutely nothing about it. Exposing this brutality, and demanding accountability, is worth the effort.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/994638832233603072 …

    Two weeks ago we saw this horrible video of brother Desmond Marrow, a former NFL player, being choked and beaten by police while he was handcuffed. The primary officer here, David Rose, was just FIRED. It happened in December. He should be charged criminally. pic.twitter.com/Ffg8DsCETv

        Will accountability make sure this brutal former police officer won't get hired as a cop in a near-by town? Brutal or incompetent members of any other profession would lose their licenses or credentials, so their brutality would never put the public in danger again.

        Do you know of anyone or group who is collecting these videos....a repository? As powerful as this video is, think how powerful it would be to have one place one could go and see how insanely pervasive this is.

        I’d add that when racism, police brutality, and the NFL bump up against each other action usually happens, good or bad. A lot of competing American cultural patterns in there...

        Cellphones have become the single greatest force for justice. Just think how much of this shit happened in the past that was never exposed like we can today.

        Texas cops I work with in a men's jail locked me in a cell with a capital murder for threatening to record them. I am 100% certain if the inmate had killed me during that Murder by proxy attempt it would have just been written off as jail accident

        I thank you for your focus on this issue! But firing is not enough! We need financial compensation taken from the police pension (not local taxpayer money), withdrawn directly from their pension fund. Hurting all of them is the only way all of them will address this issue
