Yeah, it was reported he ran from the cops twice. We agree on that. :dunno:

Craftsman is one of those conservatives who conveniently disregard the news if it’s something that contradicts his world view- then it becomes “fake news.”

You’ve seen innocent white people brutally  beaten up and killed by police, treated like dogs, the way this guy is treated on the video? 
Sorry but I don’t believe you. 

Daniel Shaver.  Not sure of any/many besides that though

Because they were beating him and he feared for his life. Turns out he was right to be scared. 

So they pulled him over for reckless driving and immediately started beating him? Where is that video?

Maybe he was up to no good that night, but they are reporting that he didn’t have a “record”. Not sure what’s so hard for you understand

I guess The only positive thing is that the beating was administered by all black officers. If it were all white or hispanics Katie bar the door. Memphis would already be in ashes.

Are those goal posts heavy?  You said “treatment”. Treatment is way different than outcome.  This guys outcome was death. Similar treatment doesn’t always end in death. So, to confirm, I have absolutely seen cops lawfully pursue fleeing white suspects and strike them in the head unnecessarily.

I don't know why someone would drive recklessly and run from the cops. There is more to this story that we don't know. Why jump to conclusions?

Can you offer an example of when that’s been the case? Normally riots take place when months go by and the officers in question haven’t been arrested.

I get that, but he doesn’t have a “record “….. like prior arrests/ convictions

I’m sure that happens. But it doesn’t happen nearly as often, or as badly, as it does with black suspects. Blacks are in their own category. And they are subject to abuse and bad treatment whether innocent or guilty of any given crime. 
 

It amazes me that after all this time people are simply unable to acknowledge institutionalized racism within the police.

George Floyd died on Memorial Day weekend. The riots didn’t take months. What’s the matter with you? Stop making things up.

56% of violent crime is committed by black people. Do bad things to others, bad things happen to you.

Seems like most of these cases have a common denominator.   Failure to comply and be able to follow instructions.   I would think most of these incidents would never happen if people of all races would follow instructions and not fight the police.

So we gone from you stating that it doesn’t happen to whites, to you’re sure it happens. Got it.  You’re posts in the thread are nothing but sky screaming.

That’s true. But I think it’s pretty rare though. 
 

In any case hopefully with the quick arrests it won’t happen this time around.

It doesn’t happen to whites as a general rule. I’m sure you can produce a few anecdotes otherwise.

I don't think we need more black cops, we need better cops.  Too many cops  suffer from insecurities and they take it out on their victims.  These types of people shouldn't be put in positions of power 

Why would anyone in 2023 want to be in law enforcement?  The anti-cop movement the past 5 years is one of the most self inflicting movements in modern history.   Cities have to fill the positions but the pool of quality persons gets smaller and smaller so you have to lower standards.  It's cutting off your nose to spite your face.

This whole country is so systemically racist that even black people are racist against black people. :doh:

I guess they are racist against themselves too. 

Did any of you brilliant liberals out there just think that good people in general just hate violent criminals? No, I bet you haven't thought about that.

No evidence of that outside of alleged reckless driving and then fleeing on foot.

I watched the video.  The cops are focked, that was ridiculous. 

ETA:  I just googled, wait......The cops have been fired, arrested and charged with murder.  So why are people protesting?

Because there is institutional racism in the police forces of this country that causes this sort of behavior
