No one is agreeing with some asshole that's so worried about his car getting touched that he takes up 2 spaces. Unless you don't think the police used excessive force I think focusing on anything else initially is odd. Do you focus on the dress size of rape victims? Do you focus on the words used by a woman who has been beaten by her husband? Do you focus on the occupation of an officer who is ambushed by some sick fuck? I'm going to assume that the answer is no. Why? Because those things are meaningless and don't justify what happened to them.

Both of these are pretty common tropes in the media. Other than America I don't think anyone thinks he deserved what he got, but he's less sympathetic because he's a millionaire parking his car across two handicap spots. Two separate thoughts.

FF I want you to walk up to a cop saying "I DIDN DO NOTHING I DIDN DO NOTHIGN DONT TOUCH ME GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME" with you hands in your pockets. See what happens. I dont think they'll put their arm around you lovingly and take you out to Steak and Shake. Your ass is gonna be on the fucking ground whether its white, black or whatever.

This is common knowledge. If you dont like it tough shit, but if you're one of those people who doesn't feel bad for people dying on Mt Everest or being tortured to death for daring to VISIT North Korea then you shouldn't have sympathy for people who get forecefully arrested when they try and make a show of arguing with some police officers.

You’re just wrong on this. Maybe you don’t have a lot of experience dealing with cops, which good for you. I’ve had my fair share. If you’re white they let you be a shitload more disrespectful and disobedient. These are commonly known facts among those who have dealt with police in an adversarial manner.

The Chicago police department has never been too keen on teenagers disrespecting them. You'd get a couple warnings to knock that shit off and if you didn't it'd take a lot less for 8 minutes for you to regret your course of actions that led to the status quo.

You too missed the point. Break it down. First thing you see. Immediate reaction. Comments on the rest of this video are fine. It's fair to note whoever owns that car is a shit. That's the immediate reaction. When you initially watch the video you know nothing else.

The first few seconds of the video show his Mercedes parked across two handicapped parking spaces. So yes, my initial reaction was he's an asshole.

This is the mentality of the typical cop. Okay, so some guy does something a little douchey and takes up a couple parking spaces that might possibly inconvenience others. (I'll note that the lot was mostly empty, it appeared that he was just in the store for a minute, and it's doubtful that he actually bothered anyone.) The cop answer to that is to block off the entire parking lot making sure that anyone coming to the store will be inconvenienced for at least the next half hour.

Also, it's nice that citizens are now so aware of cop bullshit that some of us immediately stop and question it or at least watch and/or film. It's getting harder for them to do their gestapo crap.

The simple thing to have done:"Nice parking,asshole,now you're getting towed."


6 Cops handling this and surrounding the guy was overkill of course and obvious racial profiling but it is suspicious when ANYONE takes up 2 handicap spots in a lot and runs in a store.

100% dick move and profiling by the cop. The cop definitely escalated things. I only had to watch the first couple minutes to see this.

For sure Brown should have parked in a regular spot rather than across the handicapped spots. Walgreens are super easy to park at and be close to the door.

That's even too much. The proper response would have been to pull up next to his car so he couldn't get in and fuck with him a little without getting out of the car. Like, "Oh hey, you're in a hurry? Sorry about that. I just have to finish this paperwork."

He apparently wasn't drunk so what was so important that he had to park in multiple handicap spots at 2 am? Condoms?

The first cop is the one who really escalated it. He had Baby McNown syndrome.

Are you saying you never double-parked? I'm guessing most here have, like "I'm just running in for a second." Sure, it's inconsiderate but it doesn't rise to the level of something you should be tased and/or arrested over. I would have thought the cop was a dick if he had written him a ticket.

Let me clarify that. If he had written him a ticket while he was inside, fine. But once he waited for him to come out, it should have just been, "Hey asshole, move your fucking car and don't park like that again."

No need. In Galesburg they just park on their lawns next to the boat with the engine that hasn't worked since 1998.

I've done it when I was in a rush. I've also created parking spaces. I can't recall ever making a rushed sober trip to a store at 2 am.

Sterling Brown is going to be fine. Here's the real problem with that incident. If these cops are that twitchy with someone who isn't posing the slightest threat, what do they do when a guy is a little dangerous? We know the answer. Shoot him 16 times.

Awful. To be honest, I do see why some black people cheer when cops are murdered. I do think they are justified in that.
