No crime had been committed.
This thug of a cop slammed an elderly Indian man to the ground for no reason other than being brown in Alabama and left him paralyzed, at least for now. The video is at the bottom of the page. It's difficult to watch. This cop slams this guy to the ground for no fucking reason. It makes me sick at my stomach.
This one is local so I have an update from the local news. The cop was fired and charged with assault.
Quote:People apparently had called police and reported a suspicious person. Of course, he wasn't suspicious; he was brown.
They reported that he was peering into people's houses and garages. That could mean a lot of things, but if he was venturing into people's yards in order to get a closer look then I'd have called the cops too. Regardless of skin color.
