You probably heard of the 15 year-old girl who was manhandled, handcuffed and then pepper-sprayed by Police in Maryland, after she had sustained a concussion from a collision. It was a sickening example contributing to a long demonstration that police are unwilling to de-escalate when it comes to black people. For being assaulted, she was charged with assault, putting the future of this girl at risk all because she didn’t lick the boots of the police just so.
Thankfully, the charges have been dropped. Frustratingly, she apologized, even though it was the police who assaulted her. The cops, of course, walk away with no consequences.
But, at the very least, this is one person who gets to live another day without being railroaded into prison…
Small victories.

Aside from the regular racial problems, isn’t a common effect/symptom of head trauma combativeness?
I’ve read too many medical records and police reports where cops show up to an vehicular accident, or victim of assault, and then proceed to beat the hell out of the victim.
