(85,996 posts)...it's a double standard of use of force all across America, where black individuals are subject to disproportionately violent confrontations by law enforcement officers compared to non-blacks for similar offenses. That's certainly a good example of the restraint from officers the black community is asking for in many precincts around the nation.

(85,996 posts)New video, angle on #FreddieGray's death http://ow.ly/LYFN4
Another cell phone video gives new perspective in the arrest of Freddie Gray, the Baltimore man whose family said suffered a fatal spinal-cord injury after he was handcuffed and put in the back of a police van, reports CBS News correspondent
The new video, obtained by CBS Baltimore station WJZ, shows the police van, moments later, stopped a little more than a block from the arrest site.
Police say Gray was irate in the back of the van -- so they briefly removed him to put on leg irons.
The man who took the amateur video told police he saw it all.
"That man was in the f*****g wagon with cuffs on," he said.

FUCK rotten cops! Let them all rot away in some dungeon somewhere!
