Them Boys in Blue......

My freinds and I have come to coin a phrase that states: "Youre out your tree...."

Have the boys in blue have not learned from past cases that uneeded citezen beating is just not the way to go. I just plain pisses me off, and is sad that my first television image was an African American male getting pounced on by the local Louisiana authorities. Have the police not learned from the King incedent in California? It seems to me that in a city ingulfed in their own turmoil, that a beating is not the icing on the cake. "They" warrant such actions due to public intoxication. Hello!!!!!!!!! Is this not the same city that has been hosting Mardi Gras year after year? Isn't this a city that has a known association to drinking a parties on Bourbon(sp) street? You would think that the police would be used to such a thing by now? I guess not!?! I wont be like many other people and pull the race card, but all I will say is that the city is on pins and needles as to how they handle this, or they will see the full affect of looting in the streets!

(Song that jumps in to my mind is "We're not gonna take it!"....

in this case, the POLICE are "out there tree for this one!"
And your take would be??????

Those officers were definitely out of pocket for that one. And they went beyond police brutality - they whooped his ass. Like, ghetto style. The good thing is they were suspended and are facing legal ramifications. There's a silver lining to everything, I suppose.
