  1. These POLICE OFFICERS Seem To THINK THAT BLACK MEN Have
    SUPER HUMAN STRENGTH??
    WOW!! HOW MANY TIMES ARE YOU GOING TO KILL A BLACK MAN USING UNNECESSARY
    FORCE??? AND USE THE SAME
    TIRED EXCUSE!!!!
    GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!

  2. Did this just recently happen to Mr Scott last month, him being killed while in jail?
    Or did this happen awhile back and its now being talked about.
    The other thing is. Is that these thugs (cops🤮) need to be in jail for murdering this guy. Not fired. Because they'll get hired elsewhere to continue assaulting and murdering innocent people
    Everyone is sick and tired of the abuse and murders these punks get away with killing innocent people
    If you don't do as they say or want. They beat you up and 9× out of 10…kill you
    Everyone is DONE hearing their excuse.
    'Oh, I feared for my life'
    (we're handcuffed you egghead)
    No! Jerks!
    WE!!! Fear for OUR LIVES!
    Like I said…
    People are DONE with these thugs abuse and killings of innocent people
    And the American people are going to fight back against the government and these thugs (cops🤮)
    And I don't blame them one bit

  3. Sad. I'm so sorry for the family. Absolutely should not be happening. Good grief. Seven people for one guy..Shame… Bless yalls heart.

  4. Too bad the family does not have to take any responsibility for this tragedy. The officers should not be held responsible for bringing and out-of-control inmate under control. What did the family do to help the young man's situation? Schizophrenia? What's a schizophrenic doing smoking marijuana?

  5. Death by police for misdemeanors. This is illegal. The police seem to feel free to kill regardless of how minor the crime. I do not think we can continue to kill in custody regardless of the victim’s mental capacity. It is like letting criminals to kill i

  6. How extremely difficult to hear. I had a good friend with bipolar disorder. (Meds were always available. ) They were needed for my older friend daily. She told me this was needed for years. She suffered from extremely bad mood swings. (I had to read how to help out. ) Otherwise, the meds were mixed with the alcohol she drank regularly and her cigarettes! (Eating one a day and snacking were common place then. ) And… walking her dogs and watching the national news. (Talking and our regular volunteering were my main reasons for helping out in the first place. ) I gradually learned that bipolar disorder was exhausting!! And, these mood swings were very difficult to deal with for regular neighbors or her friends. (We all pitched in to assist and as she aged, memory losses became acutely difficult for her to deal with as well. ) So …in listening to this heartbreaking legal case, and I am just also realizing… that mental illness is seldom dealt with properly. (Patients need supportive families …or many friends to balance these special needs… which handicapped people have in their daily lives. ) I worked with college students who were physically handicapped and in wheelchairs with their supreme self determination… that they could be useful citizens. This was many years ago in Texas. (They were just welcomed on campus and helped with their daily lives. ) But… that college based program was very rare! Several years ago. I loved this part time work. And …I really was considering it as a full time career choice then. (However, you must have better training in the types of skills needed to change things for handicapped people with mental illness.) It’s not often …that we have knowledge people available. Jails are used instead. Sadly this is our criminal justice system. It’s just heartbreaking to see this case tonight. Holy smokes. We should be able to do better that this!

  7. I think by now they would know when you do chokeholds, throw a spit hood on someones head and then proceed to dogpile him, then spray him with mase, that person is going to die

  8. I wish whomever is in this attorney's background would've been quiet. All that moving around is unnecessary and distracting.

  9. no he forgot he wasn't in Dallas county. Dallas county allows that type of crap to go and the rest zof Texas will arest your ass. I have lived in Dallas county my entire life and it has become a criminal infested crap hole. don't break the law and all this death of black men will stop. and any idiot says he didn't deserve to die, well the rest of the citizens don't deserve to have drugs in their community either.

  10. 1 ounce of weed is legal under 30 g two ounces of weed is considered possession with intent so another words he was dealing was caught arrested but it’s the cops fault

  11. Father help our people, these devils will keep this s*** up, and the commanders are just as guilty. This mess needs to stop, they cover up to much.

  12. Father God father of Jesus the Messiah when does it end? When will you make them take their foot off the neck of Judah😔. Jesus son of the Holy God please🙏🏾bring us peace.

  13. This has been going on for years, so while it's devastating and horribly sad, it isn't surprising. What is a bit surprising is that these murders continue to happen at a rapid rate in spite of all the media coverage, protests etc. You'd think they would at least fall back for a minute; guess that goes to show just how deep their concept of superiority runs.

  14. I feel for this man, but why were those cops allowed to break the rules….. we seem to be having tons of people dying because officials are allowed to break the rules and then months go by with no repercussions. Why are these rules allowed to be broke or did they never matter in the first place, and if they don’t matter then why do we freakin have them?? Why do we act like these rules will protect us from the ones who’d do us wrong? Why can no one get help anymore all they get is killed.
