I remember see that this morning. SMH this just makes you all kinds of mad
When will the brutality against men of Color by the police around the world going to stop? My cousin was brutalized by the police two years ago and had to go to the hospital. Now, he's slowing getting his life back together. There's a pattern of abuse of young Black and Latino/American Indian men by police in this millennium.
There's also increased incidences of police brutality along with sexual abuse against Black women. Last year's brutality against a Black girl in Seattle was taped.
I'm saddened by the tasering and abuse of the African teen in Pittsburgh. I wish him speedy recovery and I hope he sue the department for the abuse ASAP.
