They come charging in and NEVER EVER ask questions first. This is a blind, deaf and angry cop who knows his days are numbered.
I’m going to be honest here, this guy didn’t do anything wrong, the guys on drugs and needed attention and wasn’t going to let them help, if the cop leaves him there we have a whole other crowd of people screaming he should have done more. Completely wrong take abc.
UnderArmour Pay attention to yer branding.
That’s what happens when you act tough with cops. That guy knew exactly what he was doing and saying. He was playing a game with the officers. Virginia is trash for that.
GayleKing Oprah HillaryClinton told, taught mine and other white children. That black men were super predators and must be brought to heel. Why does she get a pass and you attack realDonaldTrump as a racist. When he never ever talked like that. Please explain.

THE DUDE WAS OBVIOUSLY OUT OF HIS GOURD, STUNNING HIM LIKE THAT WAS THE BEST MEANS TO KEEP EVERYONE SAFE INCLUDING THE DRUGGED OUT GUY! ANYONE WANT A PERSON LIKE THAT JUST ROAMING AROUND YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD NO MATTER WHAT COLOR SKIN HE HAS?
What happen to assaults not captured on videos? Thank God for cell phones 📱.
Why doesn’t ABC show footage of every criminal who resists arrest and hurts police officers
Okay, somebody is into S&M...cuz these stops are taking on bizarre twists.
Wow! Did not even yell , taser, taser, taser! So sad! Did you see how hard he hit his head when falling down. 😢😢😢😞
I've actually heard cops say this is going too far & it'll be impossible to do their jobs anymore. Well if they're saying it's gonna be impossible to arrest people without beating or killing them, then they don't need to be cops. Damn Brutality's so steeped into their culture!
Why is the race only relevant when it’s a white on black crime?
This is why we need equal rights because everything else matters
ugh. here we go. endless rage based on terrible data. there are 700,000 police officers in Amerixa. get rid of the bad ones. hold the mayors accountable. allow the rest of the police to do their jobs. stop stirring up riots.
So what. Guy was acting like a weirdo and using a stun gun was the safest way for the officer and civilian. No wrong doing here.
Oh gee! Another liberal fascist RACIST cop in another LIBERAL FASCIST RUN STATE! The problem is LIBERALS!
I can’t imagine how bad things were before the body cameras.
EliminateQualifiedImmunity
Looks like a Fairfax County police officer. I’m Not surprised they charged him so quickly. Good Job!
This is outrageous! Which small business needs to be looted to right this injustice
This cop gives the human race a bad name.
The man is a danger for himself and maybe others. Good job police
carterforva Click bait. Ad with no video
AaronLafond murdered Abigail Williams and Liberty German AbbyandLibby DelphiMurders TrueCrime
Riot spread to various countries, the arrested black criminal is regarded a heroe. Communist China would rather starve its own mass, send huge money to Africa in 70 years! The logic is simple, use black to destroy white. If not to Destroy Communist ,they wd Destroy the US.
ursula_wanza Police should be held accountable. 3 strikes and you’re out policy - only to stress the importance of dash/body cameras. More CAAAAAMMMMERRRAAAAAASSS! please
Meth is a hell of a drug
How can in each of these cases other officers,1st responders,etc., stand back & not stop these rogue cops? Guess once again the American People will have 2 step in 2 diffuse these continued situations. If u see it call 911 & try & get another on scene 2 help
who are the new founding fathers and what is the PURGE initiative
ABC can you publish video footage of the murder on officer Dom...
AmeriKKKa
Congrats you found an incident to spark more divide! Awesome. Hey real quick address the 92 shootings with 27 murders in Chicago this weekend.
What does colour have to do with it? I’m sure he would have brutalised a man of any colour.
When viewing this assault, the cop even tasering his NECK and knee on the upper back, my first impression was this victim has a mental illness. I worked for years in mental health. Maybe it was drugs, but we will find out. He was not violent at all.
Good. Convict his ass.
Like to hear and see the Entire Story.
The family of the victim needs to acquire the services of the ACLU to be properly Compensated, but more importantly, to make sure proper reforms are put in place so that this never happens again to anyone!
Yeah just let a disorientated crazy black man loose..lmfao the future is gonna be crazy
We are not animals stop doing this butt heads!
seriously nasty!!
the brutal beasts just can't help themselves.. 😬😬😢😢😬😬
Maybe we need some law lessons for police officers, this is a world problem, but even the public need to know that cops are humans. Don't need to insulate them.
They really can’t control themselves
Evil cops. It’s time to weed them all out.
Yeah they are taking him to detox for his disorientation. Media bias.
We have another biggest example Mr Shahrukh Khan who also transferred the money directly into labour bank account which was need of the poor migrants. They didn't do it for appreatiation or any TRP they just done it for humanity, That's should be the motive of every individual.
Y’all flag waving trumpers want more evidence?
Cold
Where are the 'good cops'? Asshats like this just make their jobs harder.
Wtf? This is exactly why black people hate white people because they think we're all the same and we're NOT! Stop this insanity for crying out loud!
MeredithDeliso is there more of that video to show?
Baligubadle1 Seriously what is fucking wrong with you police officers!? You think just because you have a badge you have all this power and you are entitled to do what ever the hell you want to news flash you don't!!
Guy was acting a bit loopy....but no threat and wasn’t armed. Jesus, stop being such dicks. No reason to taze that dude. But abc should stop referring to people by the color of their skin. But we all know why they do it.
Just another klansman, white nationalist and supremacist and neo-nazi disguised as a cop committing an atrocity and terrorist act against a helpless black man. Routine. Nothing to see here.
Will he be applauded by 57 of his coworkers? This guy undoubtedly has done this before, just not for the camera. The police chief had no idea of this guy’s volatility? Ok
Does have any footage of who pulley down the historical statue in Virginia? I bet not. Wink, Wink.
You Police Chiefs everywhere need to get control of your officers or QUIT and get out of the way...
Keep your cameras up and going hold people accountable
The veil is removed!
Perhaps you should report on the 8 police officers killed by these protestors. Journalistic malpractice.
It's best to have racial discrimination in America? How can there be a black president in the racial discrimination America ? My fellow blackmen, you've been deceived by the people who want to hurt your country! Don't forget. You are the American. Protect your country is No. 1
🤬🙄
Lets go ahead and hit em with the stun gun in the mean time as well. Want to keep it fresh on his mind for the trial. -Join me on my broke & homeless pandemic road trip! 🇺🇸
Corona don't even matter only bumba claat lives matter right now. And I mean right now !
That's puritan level racism
Police brutality is on the rise everywhere in the world What is the reason? Are the cops power drunk or they are been pushed by their uniform? Because people only respect the uniform not the person wearing it
We have to admit that most of the time the police are protecting our people. In the face of drug dealers, in the face of the gunmen, in the face of looting when the police work in the front line! Let Biden and the left wing of the Democratic Party do this?
