    1. Whats really disturbing is how a lot of black men like to walk around with their pants down, and I’m talking about grown men not just the kids.

    2. to me it looked as if he was enjoying it, the guys limp on the ground and not resisting at all, people see hes sufficaiting and tell them to get off , and they continue to murder him…..it doesnt look like an accident at all, this looks very intentional on every level. being fired isnt enuf of a punishment for this. thats premed murder wile multiple people were forced to watch, under threat of arrest. at the very LEAST the cop that killed him needs to go for life in prison. but you know what ? i bet hes gona get a slap on the wrist, they will let him go cuz hes white and they dont care.

  1. You can tell the man died on the street. A person’s bowels releases when they pass and it’s clear that this man is being filmed at the moment of his needless death. When someone says, “I can’t breathe”, why are you not listening? You just strangled a man to death. This isn’t the first time but I hope to God it will be the last.

    1. If he could not breath he would not of been able to say I cant breathe. So how are you going to trust a liar.

    2. @Jason Bailey probably couldn’t breathe well then. Pretty obvious something was wrong considering he died

    3. @Jason Bailey have you seen the full video???? at some point he stopped saying “I cant breathe” then 2 minute later he looses conscience then 2 minutes later cop let him go. MURDER PLAIN AND SIMPLE

    1. @KhaziFN he was pronounced at the hospital but was already dead, . I used to work as a paramedic, this is often how it goes.

  2. That cowardly cop had another right behind him when he murdered that guy. I wonder which station they will be working at next week.

    1. @Tasha Ford unless they are sent to jail every fkn cop that does stuff like this get a job somewhere. They protect each other and think thats good

  3. What even more sick these other “good guys” stood an watched this makes me so sick wth wrong with people 😢

  4. Those 4 officers should be charged for a HATE CRIME. In my eyes they did not treat the black man as a human being. They are discraceful.

    1. Virginia O’Flaherty not all cops are like this FYI. There are a good amount who are disgusting pigs who do this.

    2. Let’s support China and Russia against NATO COLONIZERS. It is our only hope. U want black and brown people to be free everywhere, then you gotta support China and Russia to defeat NATO COLONIZERS and EU Colonizers. U want Palestine to be Free, u gotta support China and Russia.

  5. Fired from this department only to be hired by a different department just a matter of time unless they are charged with some crime.

  6. I’m just as pissed at the 3 other officers who stood there an watched. He knew that man was dead when he stopped talking and moving.

    1. @cj p we all now that having trump in the white house has open the floodgates for racists like you and these cops so plz stfuu

    2. Two other cops were restraining him too. The other cop was talking to the ppl. There’s another video with another angle. Go check out Shaun King’s page on Instagram. These cops need to be given the death penalty.

  7. Forgot to say he kept his knee on a handcuffed man’s neck for minimum 7 whole minutes.

  8. “resisting arrest”

    When you’re trying to breathe your brain isn’t really operating with logic anymore.

  9. Poor guy even said,” I’m about to die”… imagine… you know you’re dying..

    1. And it’s always happening. Cops are always digging their knee into people long after they’re restrained it’s bullshit just wanna inflict pain because they’re pissed in the heat of the moment
