In January, four NYPD officers were caught on tape brutally beating 19-year-old Jateik Reed in the Bronx. The officers claimed they stopped Reed after seeing him hold marijuana and a bag containing crack residue, and that Reed struck police first. Now, surveillance video obtained by New York One appears to show that the entire confrontation was unprovoked -- and that the charges officers levied against the Black youth are false.

However anyways its messed up for a cop to violently attack anyone especially with no reason.

It's because if it happens to a black person it's considered a racial hate crime, but if it's a white person it's just justice being served.

Seriously, it shouldn't make a difference and if it does then the person thinking it does is a racist themselves.

I hate seeing this because the news only broadcasts things officers do that is bad, 99% of officers are good, 1% is bad. It's like that in almost any job and yet you only hear the bad that they do. Hell, we had a couple officers killed where I live trying to do good and a 1 page article was written with about 3 days of coverage. 1 officer messed up and did what he thought was good ended up being bad and that story was put up for about 2 weeks...
