SARASOTA, Fla. — A video that surfaced Monday shows a Sarasota policeman kneeling on a man’s back and neck while he was arrested in May.

The officer appears to adjust his position and move his knee onto Carroll’s back, while two other male officers stood over them watching. According to the report, which was also posted on the police department’s social media accounts, three officers responded to Dixie Avenue for a report of a battery.

My God! How deep does this ignorance run?!!!

This tactic is used all over police are trained in the use of the knee Just watch live pd and you will see

Get rid of the officer, never mind put on leave.

That officer needs to be fired and banned permanently from the police force, as should be any officer nationwide who abuses their power.

All blacks have the potential of resisting arrest. Thats why the cops are cautious.

Of course it is. Fire them all.

FIRE THEM...if this is their go-to....imagine when the cameras aren't on.

I guess the BLACK man shouldn’t of been breaking the law huh?

Get all white religious figures of ALL Christian faiths to kneel at frontline in unison for 9 minutes in silence across nation at peaceful protests. Optional: placards denouncing Trump and his actions held up by key Christian leaders. Get this visual on tv and loop it.

We will NOT be oppressed by this vile form of a human being. Fight like your lives and democracy depends on it - because it does!! protest2020 HitlerWannaBe UNFIT Congress USAonFire trump wanted this war on Americans. VoteBlueToSaveAmerica2020 RT the hell out of this

Ever fight with a person on drugs and super-human strength, fighting for your life or those around you?.....Didn’t think so

When you deal with crime everyday time after time what do you want from them robotics?

How about the government stop all interaction between cops and the poor pitiful blacks. Let the poor pitiful blacks run rampant (which they already are) and let them commit all the crimes they want with total immunity. Would that make those poor pitiful victims happy?

It's not taught. It just comes naturally.

SUPPORT OUR POLICE BlueLivesMatter

Cowardly propaganda when they know full well they say the opposite behind closed doors. We see THOUSANDS of arrests nationwide to put down a revolution while 3/4 murdering cops walk free. Revolution2020

But the crooked cops only get fired and the brutality continues

But it’s not discouraged
