Police Brutality vs: Social Media and You Tube

Generations of Bigots hiding behind the badge

Police Brutality was recorded as far back as the Anti-Vietnam War demonstrations by national media outlets. It culminated in the mass murder at Kent St. Back then police often bragged about bashing heads with their batons. Today they have escalated to using any excuse they can to pull out their weapon and use a child for target practice.

Now they are trying to claim the national outcry and protest against police violence is emboldening criminals, and diminishing their capacity to police.
