Please. They had no reason to arrest him. It's interesting they never proved he was selling that day or doing anything illegal. They killed him for his prior arrests.

I'd have done the same thing as him. They had no business touching him, no proof he was doing anything illegal. Watch the video. He never made a move against the cops. He stood there until the coward snuck up behind him and choked him to the ground.

If a dirty cop is trying to illegally arrest a citizen, that citizen should resist.

I guess I'm crazy too. The man did nothing wrong except for having a police record against him. Period.

Really. When the cops say they seen him selling a loose cigarette that means he did nothing wrong?

I guess cops don't lie or plant evidence either eh? Why would someone who has complied with the law officers for the "previous" arrests all of the sudden decide not to this one time unless he was of course really innocent this time?

Eastman, a guy that is about to be arrested and doesn't want to be is going to act agitated and proclaim his innocence. Ever heard the saying that "no one in jail is guilty"? It's because those who commit crimes like to proclaim there innocence even though they are as guilty as can be.

Heck, it wasn't even the first time the guy had resisted arrest. Didn't you read his prior sheet? Do you suppose that every time he resisted arrest that he was innocent? Do you suppose that every time someone resists arrest that they are innocent?

And as to the cops planting evidence.... sure it happens. It didn't happen here though. How can you believe the guy was arrested for selling loosies 8 times prior and somehow wasn't actually doing the same thing this time? That's beyond me. Or do you think all 8 times the cops planted evidence on the guy?

Last point, no one can argue with conspiracy theories....

I guess innocent until proven guilty isn't in your argument either is it?

See? You did it again. That is an emotional response. Nobody denies there are bad cops

BTW How do you know he complied? being Really innocent THIS time? If he really was innocent THIS time, why fight with the police? Most of us are smart enough to know if you are combative with the police it's not going to end good

BTW Lots of people who are NOT innocent have the same behavior of combativeness and then resisting arrest

I never would have done the same thing, because unlike others that say they are afraid of the Police, I really am! That is insane to actually admit to resisting arrest, resulting in a take down.
