Orlando Police Try To Rip Phone From Teens Hands

http://photographyisnotacrime.com/2015/07/orlando-police-try-to-rip-phone-out-of-teens-hands-before-beating-him/


I find it not at all comfortable that this behavior continues wide spread, how many instances are not reported on, I guess until it happens to themselves, they can worry later about the implications that such is becoming the norm....

strange times getting stranger the more we know but hey

Look over there....

I'm not good at threads but I seriously think this is an extremely important issue

Protesting should be legal and I guess it is but you can still be jailed and illegally held , I think that fear stops many people from protesting the many abuses that continue day after day

now that should be illegal and it is obviously not..

I just worry about the implication that using fear tactics on American citizens to keep their fears silenced is becoming quite normal

Unless of course those fears breed fighting among the people, then they are allowed to be broadcast, I just find that troubling

JMHO

There's been no (i.e. zero) motivation to change. The laws haven't changed, the judges haven't change, the DA's haven't changed. Well, you get it I'm sure.
