Is there any evidence that the girl in question committed a crime?

Luhe, I think the former officer should be charged with assault, I think this because there seems to be good evidence that he committed assault and I don't believe police officers should be above the law, or that there should be exceptions for when the victim is black.
Re: authority, it's too broad a question to answer simply, as someone who wears eye glasses and takes them off when swimming, I think I would also be unhappy to leave a scene without my property and with no good reason to do so, though as a white man it is unlikely that I would have been assaulted for this. -

Luhe, when exactly would she have been able to have the calm discussion with the barrel rolling officer if she left the scene? The point anyway is that there doesn't seem to be evidence that she was being 'bratty' just for the fun of it.
What do you think should happen to the police officer btw? -

Luhe, have you even seen the video? We're talking about a police officer who was throwing barrel rolls and in a clear rage, not a chap to be reasoned with, indeed, when she told him he violently assaulted her. You're talking shit, quite frankly. -

The request really wasn't that reasonable. The girl was hesitant to leave because she wanted to pick up her glasses. The idea that she should abandon her property (eye glasses are expensive) because of a power tripping policeman is rather ridiculous. She was probably worried about getting in trouble with her parents who would have had to replace the glasses.
Generally if you violently assault someone and pull a gun on people you will be charged for it, there should be no exception here. -

Billyblobber, you write a great post, but there's an overlap here, we wouldn't get the same response to a video that showed a violent assault on a white girl.
These views lead to the creation of policies that hurt black people, which is the real problem of racism as you know.

Racism and sexism are still alive and well on JWN I see... :/
It should be surprising to see the violent assault of a teenage girl who broke no laws and exhibited no violent or threatening behaviour not just defended but praised, but when that teenage girl is black it's basically par for the course around here.

Why are people burning their city to the ground in Baltimore? How doe Looting and Mob Violence Help?
by PokerPlayerPhil init's hard enough for businesses to enter these areas the government once had to offer up tax breaks to service them.
in watts, california it took decades for city residents to get a grocery store after the thugs burned their businesses to the ground.
you can see the insanity taking place, when you allow mobs and fools to burn building down nothing good comes from it.

this reminds me of the experiment of sending out two exact resumes over a period of 4 years or so. One had the name Dante Williams a common black name the other Donald Williams. Dinald williams received 50% more calls although everything was exactly the same.
Paul, have you ever seen these videos from YouTube? Anyone who watches these and still claims black people are not treated differently because of skin colour is a racist. Check your privilege.
