I just saw the video of the cops breaking up the pool party in Texas. What a fascinating video. [View all]

It encapsulates nearly everything that's wrong with the the criminal justice system in America. Blacks are at a disadvantage from the get-go...presumed guilty and treated like shit right off the bat.

The two most fascinating aspects of the video are the out of control cops and the privilege enjoyed by the white bystanders.

The cop was clearly trying to go after every single black kid he could. He even used excessive force to subdue a teenage girl. It's not like she was armed, she was wearing a bikini for crying out loud. She clearly had no weapon on her, but that didn't stop the cop from physically assaulting her.

Even more fascinating is how the white people there are standing around with no fear of the police at all. One white guy (not a cop) even tries to physically restrain one of the black teenage girls with no consequence at all. Clearly the white people in the video are enjoying privilege and have no fear of the cops while the black kids seem terrified as the cop pulls out his gun and starts chasing them around.

Is it any wonder why black people distrust the police? Blacks are exposed to this shit from a very early age.

A protest against police brutality is planned for Monday evening in McKinney. Many people, both in the community and around the country, said it appeared in the video that police were targeting the black teens.

The teen who filmed the video, who is white, agreed. He can be seen in the video walking around and talking to the black teens, who are being forced to sit on the ground, without the Casebolt saying anything to him.

Brooks told Buzzfeed, “Everyone who was getting put on the ground was black, Mexican, Arabic. The cop didn’t even look at me. It was kind of like I was invisible.”
