Patrick Mumford, a 24-year-old Georgia man who was violently and wrongfully arrested by Savannah-Chatham Metro Police in Georgia. The police body cam video below is a prime example of how black men (and women) across this country are mistreated in police interactions. The synopsis of the interaction and the video have been provided by the Claiborne Firm who are representing the young man as he faces a bogus charge, even after police realized they had the wrong man. You won’t be able to take your eyes off the cringe-inducing video.
24-year-old Patrick Mumford was sitting in his own car in February, 2016 when he was confronted by three Savannah-Chatham Metro Police Officers, who were serving a warrant for another man, Michael Clay.
The lead officer confronts Patrick but does not believe Patrick when he truthfully identifies himself to the officer, twice. Patrick rightfully asks the officers what is the matter and to see the arrest warrant they say they are serving.
Fearful and confused, Patrick retreats into the passenger seat of his car. Within 38 seconds of his initial introduction to the officers, the lead officer is ordering Patrick to be tased for non-compliance.
It takes a violent use of force for officers to realize what we already know: they have the wrong guy.
Rather than apologize, the officers rationalize and justify their actions to horrified neighbors and even Patrick's parents. These rationalizations include the repeated false statement that the officers asked Patrick for his ID.
Patrick is arrested for obstruction. As a non-violent drug offender serving in a first-offender probation program, a pending probation violation could cost him his job, his college education, and seven years in prison: all for sitting in his own car, minding his own business, and telling the truth.

Fulton County District Attorney Paul Howard announced that arrest warrants were issued Friday for the ex-Atlanta police officer who shot and killed an unarmed black motorist on June 22.
Howard said he will be seeking an indictment against Officer James Burns for felony murder, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon and violation of his oath of office for killing Deravis Caine Rogers outside a northeast Atlanta apartment complex.
Burns, who joined the force in 2013, was fired from the department July 1 after an internal affairs investigation determined that the shooting amounted to excessive force. Howard said he will take the case to a grand jury early next month.
“By reason of the evidence presented by several eye-witnesses, videos, and the findings of the Atlanta Police Department, we will proceed in this case in the same manner as any other defendant similarly charged — arrest, indictment and resolution,” Howard said in a statement.

Support the police. Dangerous job. Risk their lives every day. Keeping us safe. Blue lives matter. What would you do without 'em.
Yes it's a tough call. It only takes a small percentage to tarnish them all but the result of that small percentage is causing chaos......

I hold it that a little rebellion now and then is a good thing, and as necessary in the political world as storms in the physical.Unsuccesful rebellions indeed generally establish the incroachments on the rights of the people which have produced them. An observation of this truth should render honest republican governors so mild in their punishment of rebellions, as not to discourage them too much. It is a medecine necessary for the sound health of government."

The US is a country founded upon the very principle of armed rebellion against authority, and the Constitution encourages the citizens to stay armed so they can fight what they consider unjust oppression.
So why does it surprise anyone that people are doing exactly that?

I posted that too I think. everyone should have a quick look. that prick lemon pushing his professor 'data' as this one lame study that didn't even say what he was saying is laughable. how the msm feeds it's viewers.
Clarke for AG or FBI Director!
Try answering the question. A simply yes or no will suffice.
Again: So, you're all for illegal search and seizure as long as it's not you?
I surely am. I'm all for restricting all rights and freedoms for everybody but me.
Funny how that don't work out, though.
True.
uh no, it was founded on genocide of the original natives who lived in America. The constitution was written by rich white dudes for the benefit of rich white dudes - who were also slave owners.
