Domino Lusk said:I live in Stockton... The kid jay walked, all the cop did was walked up to talk to the kid.. The kid started pushing.. Then all this happened. People need to stop yelling and congrigating around cops when they are doing their job. It's ok to watch and make sure the cops don't step beyond boundaries.. But yelling at them will escalate it. Which is why more cops came. To make sure the crowd stayed in check... Nothing racist. Just cops and a dumb teen..

Plus I think the arresting cop was Hispanic, possibly Asian.
OT: That wasn't a slam, the kid was trying to stay standing when he was being told and pushed to the ground. Just because you stand there and say things like I'm not resisting doesn't mean you aren't resisting, if you refuse to put your hands behind your back you're resisting, if you fail to get on the ground you're resisting, if you don't stand still when they tell you to you're resisting. Just because you think some of the orders are unnecessary or unwarranted doesn't make them less of an order.
I would've been scared too. If im a black kid and a Caucasian police officer comes up to me, I'd immediately think of all the other black vs white police cases where the black one ends up dead and I'd get nervous as to what that police officer would do.
Does that arresting officer look Caucasian to you?
@Cole World, see if he were a black kid he would fear and prematurely judge all white cops based on the actions of others. This is in reference to those other posts, not trying to start anything just pointing out how the process seems to naturally happen with people. Most of us usually judge a group based off the worst showings of said group.
No he looks like he's of Hispanic descent, but that's an assumption. With his skin tone I'd assume that he's not on my side. Him being a police officer alone confronting me over crossing the street improperly for the sake of getting to the bus quicker would have made me nervous.
