No one could even argue that she was a threat. A teenage black girl a child in her swim suit unarmed and no feasible way to hide any weapon on her got fucking slammed into the ground and was treated like a rag doll by an officer who is probably 3 times her age and weight. How can you really justify that? Then pull out your gun when people try to defend her! He came out there with sole intent to hurt those black kids
And when people say that “She should’ve kept quiet!” Don’t y’all remember the VERY FIRST FREAKING AMENDMENT that y’all just absolutely rave about when you wanna say something racist? Respectability politics is dead, and you can’t arrest a child for talking. Attitude problems are for her parents to deal with, not for the police. His feelings were hurt cuz a little girl had the nerve to stand up to his B.S. That arrest was illegal, because she did NOT commit a crime.
