Police Brutality Controversies - Nine US cops turn up to arrest one teenager for 'jaywalking'

Was standing in a bus lane in the street.
Told to move.
Told cop to fuck off.
Cop grabs him out of traffic.
He physically removes the cop's hand from him and tries to move away.
Cop whacks him with the baton after he allegedly tries to grab it after finally being detained.
Cop calls for backup twice because angry screaming mob is forming.

& I'm supposed to feel bad for the jackass who caused all this because he wouldn't move from the middle of an active bus lane??? That's asking a bit much.

Once again, both parties are wrong.

The kid should have complied and not resisted.

The cops should not have been so needlessly aggressive. The kid was clearly holding his face in pain after being knocked with the butt of a baton. Was it really necessary to judo-flip him onto the concrete with 9 cops?

Jesus, it was jay walking, no need to escalate the situation for no reason.
