This guy is fucking BIG man.....if I were one of the cops id shit my pants.... good guy!
i haven't been following this that much. have there been a large number of assaults via police?
Ya there have been a lot of people getting fucked up by cops using pepperspray and batons. Having said that, when i went down, the cops were super chill and actually some were nodding along with the chants we were yelling.
If we stand up for something even though we may be affraid.. itll make a difference. its just that more of us need to stand up n fight whats wrong instead of video taping one man risk his neck for it.
ya, you could say thatQuote:

With all due respect, homeboy needs to increase his vocab if he is going to 'perform' for the camera's
lol maybe but it doesn't take too many words to say that unnecessary cop on civilian violence is wrong. I can get over his lack of vocabulary for the soul reason that he had the balls to approach 30 cops knowing that there was a decent chance of him getting his ass beat.Quote:

Once the cops realize that they are not the movement's enemies, but could be their closest allies everything will change.
Would have been braver if wasn't hiding behind the uniform. I believe he is actually violating orders by wearing it in such a manner (MCO P1020.34G).
maybe, but it gives him credibility. I don't believe it would have gone viral if he was just a man claiming to be a marine without evidence to back it up. I also don't believe it would have gone viral if it was someone who wasn't a marine, because the protests are already full of people saying that the brutality is wrong. When it comes from a man who risked his life for the USA, and can prove it, it gives his words a little more power.Quote:

To clarify and to not take anything away from the man, he WAS a Marine and he plainly states that on his youtube video post. The uniform was just worn for impact.Quote:

What do these videos prove? All I could see was a camera panning over to shit that was already in action. You take that video on the other thread where everybody supported the man beating two women with a pole, change the camera angle and start it exactly when he started hitting those bitches and give their account of the event and everybody on that thread would have had a different opinion on his actions. Think about it people!Quote:

they are totally in the right, especially pepper spraying them.
Ya a man totally needs a pole to defend himself against two women and continue to beat them even when they are down. You commented on that thread you didn't speak out against him.
these are peaceful protesters. they are not punching cops in the face, and chasing them down to hurt them in an area full of knives and hot liquid. These things can't be compared dude, sorry. Protesting peacefully is not the same as hitting a random person in the face.Quote:
