This is the best response I've seen to the pool attack yet.

The words that keep coming back to me in this video from McKinney came from the mouth of a petite girl in a pink and yellow bikini as shes pulled to the ground by a police officer twice her size.
Call my momma. Oh God! she cries.
Shes weeping in fear as Cpl. Eric Casebolt pushes her face into the ground and then straddles her back shouting demands for her to stop struggling.
What struggle? Shes a child on the ground in handcuffs crying for her mother.

But its impossible not to wonder how different a scene this would have been if these kids had been white instead of black. Would Casebolt have dared to drag a blond-haired, blue-eyed girl to the ground screaming ON YOUR FACE! at a pool in an affluent suburb?
If your answer is yes, let me know the next time that happens.
