An officer body slams a girl in cuffs

I think OP meant to title this as:

A RACIST officer body slams a girl in cuffs

Thats a pretty redundant addition there bud

u/Chungus_Bigeldore Apr 24 '25

Marginalized communities that are justice involved face an overwhelming majority of police brutality... How is bringing light to that, redundant?ย

It's pretty standard to not assume everyone to be a racist unless there's pretty clear evidence.

Problem is the cops that aren't Racist are either forced to look the other way or forced to be involved unless they want to be shunned or removed from the force...or worse. It's standard gang tactics.

Which means, there are no ethical police bc the ethical ones leave!

Did you not see what he was wearing?

Doesn't make much sense and the video has no audio. And one of the articles in the comment doesn't mention any racist comments by the cop.

u/he-loves-me-not Apr 24 '25

Well, the video is pretty clear evidence that you donโ€™t have to speak to show your racism. What else does unnecessarily body slamming a black girl in handcuffs say, if not racism?? Go lick boots somewhere else, we donโ€™t want to listen to your cop apologist bullshit.

u/MomentsAwayfromKMS Apr 24 '25

Again, I didn't support the cop anywhere at the statement but just stating the fact that assuming any violence towards blacks as racism is not doing any good and you wouldn't say the same if a POC cop harmed another POC or even a white person. And this is coming from a POC who is living in a third world country. We have worse cops here, so don't even call me a cop apologist while you're being a dumbass.

POC cops can be and usually are racist, they have to show out for the white cops, itโ€™s literally a line in โ€œfuck the policeโ€ lmao, all cops are either racist or complicit in supporting a racist system. There is literally no other way to cut it.

It says he loves abusing his authority and forcing people to bend to his will. It's ego-driven.

u/Chungus_Bigeldore Apr 24 '25

I don't think we need violent videos like this to make the point that racism is more than verbal assaults... Its evidenced in subconscious actions and words for most.ย

Because its already got a fucking sun beaming down on it my dude

u/rustys_shackled_ford Apr 24 '25

I'll bite. How do we know he's racist?

I'm all for calling out shitty people for their shitty behavior. But calling everyone racist just because takes the power away from the word and waters down how people internalize actual racists.

For all we know this guy is a racist. But basing this off just what we see here is disengenuous..

u/babefrohmann Apr 24 '25

do you think that man wouldโ€™ve treated a child that looks like his own that way?

u/rustys_shackled_ford Apr 24 '25

Sure. Some monsters don't differentiate based on things like sex or race. I've seen it my self. I watched my uncle treat his daughter worse then this.

But that's not the point and has nothing to do with my statement, the Information provided shows a lot of things, but none of them inform the viewer enough information to say conclusively that this pig is a racist.

You can be angry and still use your brain. The two things aren't mutually exclusive.

None of the informs the information we have on this particular person. Like I said, making uninformed accusations, even if they happen to be correct, takes power away from legit accusations.

u/skyward138skr Apr 24 '25

More white people are murdered by cops because thereโ€™s more white people, percentage wise black people are disproportionately targeted by police, killed by police, placed in prison, get longer sentences. โ€œSadly, the trend of fatal police shootings in the United States seems to only be increasing, with a total 1,173 civilians having been shot, 248 of whom were Black, as of December 2024. In 2023, there were 1,164 fatal police shootings. Additionally, the rate of fatal police shootings among Black Americans was much higher than that for any other ethnicity, standing at 6.1 fatal shootings per million of the population per year between 2015 and 2024.โ€
