Father out walking with his autistic 7 year old son early before it gets hot. Police show up and tell him he looks suspicious. They proceed to slam him to the ground and arrest him for being suspicious and leave his kid crying and alone. All sounds crazy until you realize he was black suspicious in a shithole red state. Then it makes sense. ‘Merica! Officers are still employed and on payroll. 3 minute video below in tweet. Last minute is heartbreaking. News article below that. Sheriff asks that Watonga officers be placed on leave after concerns
either this is blatant collusion to soak the tax payers or these asswipes need to have honey poured on them & thrown in an ant hill. Walking w/o ID is an offense? Make America China!
If a policeman pulled over and asked me where I was walking to, where I was coming from ... I'd probably tell him because that's my nature. But unless he gave a reason why he wanted to know, part of me would be thinking "what business is it of yours ...?"
So this is the “dilemma.” Uh, I’m just existing, how about you participate? Reality: This. Outrageous. I would say I hope this guy gets millions, but those dollars come from the 90% of citizens who work daily life just fine.
Just to pick one, when the cop tells the terrified 4 year-old “I’m not going to hurt you”….. Wow. What a qualifier.
I guarantee that poster was ok with the jan6 idiots not complying and they were actually breaking the law.
I agree with everybody here based on the video evidence however are we sure the title of this thread is correct? John Sexton does not look black to me and none of the articles I could find said anything about a Black Man. You know if Sexton was black every news media reporting this story would mention he was black.
