That video was hard to watch. Even harder to believe it's recent.

It's strange that no outside sources have access to the videos, but then again, when an officer is in question, the police are the one's who investigate.

Could you imagine if this had happened to your wife and kids? If it had been a black worker who laid hands on a white 7 year old kid there is a good chance he would be dead now. Until we fix what is wrong with our police there is no chance of the folks in the black neighborhoods trusting the police to help. This video shows it plainly.
