No nine year old deserves to be treated this way

1. Do you have any context? It just goes straight to the video (which I agree is enraging).

And you can't tell where or when this happened.

2. WTF!

That poor kid.

3. Monstrous. One runs out of words after a while...

if that child were white and had just murdered nine worshipers in their own church, the cops would take him to Burger King for a nice meal. I wish I could afford to emigrate to a civilized country.

5. Good lord!

I have no idea about the context, but he's a small fellow and very young. Exactly how many police officers were needed to do this? Do the police have nothing better to do than to send so MANY of them to deal with this? I clearly want police officers who know how to handle situations appropriately, and these do not.

What could the young man have POSSIBLY done to warrant this?

I would love to know the details, but, as far as I can tell, this is just a further example of how awful the situation is.

BLM! Stop the madness!

On edit: I just saw the ABC video. This is over a year old. Still, there is NO WAY that anything the young man did in any possible way justified this overreaction. More than one year later, I hope this young man and his family get justice.

6. UNBELIEVABLE!

It took 6 cops to handle a 9 year old?
Cuffs & hostage bag?
Fire them all.
They're useless.

7. The striking thing is that kid is saying, " I can't breathe"

My friend posted this video and I didn’t know it was over a year old. That said the police way overreacted and should have been Disciplined or suspended. You know they wouldn’t do this to a white kid.

10. Doesn't matter if it's a year old or 50 years old. The abuse this child suffered is timeless!

I hope this video now gets the attention owed at the time. Those pigs didn't care if they injured that child or killed him. omg, I just can't... It's too much.

8. No words -

Just DEEP Visceral FEELINGS.

9. omg, they put a plastic bag over that baby's head!

Pig asses kneeling on this little boy and possible rib injury, then potential suffocation by a plastic bag over his head.

I'm sick and fucking tired of the 'Few bad apples', BULLSHIT. A whole unit of pigs to take down a baby. Fire every one of them and lock them up in a mental ward until they fucking ROT.
