Cops beat up Suspect
Rodney King '08 in the city of brotherly love
This is nasty, the quiet video speaks volumes of how law enforcement treats black people. In this instance, in Philadelphia, cops drag out a fleeing suspect from his vehicle and a gang of cops take turns throwing in kicks & punches. Apparently it takes upwards to 10+ officers to take down two suspects. Philly already has to deal with one of the highest crime rates, poverty, and an unequal social system - so this event, doesn't help the city of 'brotherly love'.
A social response is necessary, violence/riots may not be the answer - protests and rallies may be useful, but how much can people take of this injustice? First Sean Bell, Jenna 6, and now this???
