Video on How to Be Arrested
Once again rogue police officers, with a wink and nod from their superiors, attempt to change reality. The officers involved in the Rodney King affair want us to believe that they feared for their lives. Twenty rigorously trained, not to mention armed, men and women standing by as backup and these men feared for their lives as they savagely beat this man?
I hope all African-Americans and any other persons of reason will be personally insulted by these attempts to justify and explain away video evidence of police brutality. We must voice our feelings and see that true change happens within the police departments of America.
