Showing Original Post only (View all)About that young lady the cop brutally attacked over the pool party.... [View all]
Yeah, she is a RESIDENT of the community that hosts the pool.
She invited other RESIDENTS and some of the RESIDENTS gave others guest passes, as is their right as RESIDENTS. MOST OF THE ATTENDEES WERE RESIDENTS!
A racist white woman started making racist comments starting the altercation. She and another white woman ATTACKED this young lady in a violent assault, prompting the call to the police.
The rest is history, as they say. The twelve cops showed up and showed that all twelve of them were racist bad cops:
