Police Mercilessly Punch Defenseless Man In The Head As Walmart Shoppers Watch In Horror
http://www.addictinginfo.org/2014/08/25/police-mercilessly-punch-defenseless-man-in-the-head-as-walmart-shoppers-watch-in-horror-video/Police were called to the store at 1:00pm to respond to concerns about an allegedly intoxicated man standing outside the front doors. After officers arrived on the scene, the man told them “I’m 911″ and went inside the store. An officers used a taser to take the unknown man down. But police didn’t stop there. They decided to demonstrate what police brutality looks like as shoppers watched.
One officer mercilessly kept punching the man in the head while he was lying on the floor. Witnesses, who said police actions in Ferguson, Missouri have caused them to pay more attention to what police do, begged the officers to stop.
“Please don’t punch him like that. Please don’t. Don’t punch him no more,” one customer can be heard saying in the background of a cell phone video of the incident.
Always the low blow. Always.

one night I was in municipal traffic court and there were a couple cops in there. Both had big biceps and looked like they worked out a lot. In addition, they had tattoos like you wouldn't believe!
They looked clean cut but I do recall thinking it odd for a police officer to be that in shape. I mean, what about the donuts?
On the other hand, I was shopping for cat food in the grocery store and there was an officer in there who was not only quite handsome, but regular in size. He had on his uniform and some type of radio receiver. He was clearly shopping for cat food while on duty. He was also on his cell phone talking to his girlfriend or wife about what type of cat food to buy.
When he got off the phone, he asked me how many cats I had. I told him and he said, "I love my cat."
I don't know what to think of all this.
Cher
if you say so.
geez
but does anyone think roid rage might have something to do with this shit?
...they'd still shoot his ass but say sorry afterwards.
Had he been a petite white women they'd slam her face into the floor
Had he been a black man they'd beat him mercilessly while screaming stop resisting
Had he been a white woman caught shoplifting they'd pounce on her and brutally kick her ass right in front of her young daughter.
'Merica
Like Kelly Thomas (Strangled and beaten to death), Doug Zerby (Cops never announced themselves before blowing him away for just holding a garden nozzle), Michael Nida (Unarmed and shot in the back with an MP5) and James Boyd (Shot multiple times in the back)?

to these guys, still doesn't change THE FACT unarmed black males are shot with far more frequency than with the shootings of unarmed white males. You're not going to change that fact. I never said the Ferguson type execution couldn't happen to a white male, it's just that it happens with MUCH less frequency than with black males. Period. You are not going to change that FACT by throwing up photos of white males who may or may not have done something to warrant what happened to them. Period.
Shoots a little elderly man - then I'll believe it.
At this point - their key focus is to beat up the banking, telecom, and mic industries. We can't blink without them breathing down our necks and making trouble.
I'll be interested to see when Greenwald/Snowden FINALLY release their full files/documents what they have to say about the links to OFAC/BIS and holding people financially and criminally responsible at 'corporations' if they fuck up and sell/give/ship to someone on the list. I now my 'peer' at the other three carriers - Greenwald/Snowden if what they've got is good . . .
Would have our names out there. I'm not afraid of having it out there. Those four names in print would tell us what they have is genuine. And we've never been interviewed by Greenwald - so he has full bandwidth to not protect sources - as we aren't. 
All too often in these situations, it's the former.
this is my hometown, the place I've lived most of my life. I hope the cop broke his hand. Wouldn't you think it would hurt to punch someone's skull like that and that you'd probably have to be on something to do it? Good for the people who filmed this and spoke up against it. Maybe we've all just about had enough? 
Sorry for the confusion!
are you. Most aren't at that age, black or white. It's just that a black non angel will die because of that while a white non angel will sometimes get a pass and frequently the benefit of doubt.
My reply was supposed to echo an appalling (and, I thought, notorious) editorial by the New York Times. I thought it was obvious. Clearly, I was mistaken.
in these days of black and white, I miss the grey(nuance). I unfortunately have lost my abilities to see jokes or experience nuance. That's on me.
And welcome to DU, from a former NOLA resident who was hoping to come back and help out after the events of nine years ago.
