I am sick and tired of this. I don't care what this young man did before the video was filmed. NONE OF THIS is remotely humane.

He was a passenger sitting behind the driver seat.

Do you know why the guy was stopped, and what the alleged purp was supposed to have done? Not that there is any justification. If he’s a real bad guy, pull your gun out and order him out that way. I can’t believe that is police best practices in that situation.

This is police brutality and I am sick of these actions by white cops!

All cops. You'll see all colors do it on the blue side but on the receiving end- there's the problem. Brown bodies are the targets. Black and brown cops are trained to do the same crap but they are the first to take the fall when and if justice ever does come.

Horrendous. No excuse for police violence against Black men, women, and children. None.

Wow what a brave cop, fire his ass then throw him behind bars for a month.

How about put him in the same cell with Trump and his family for ten years

This cop needs to go to prison for battery/abuse at the very least. And he needs to be stripped of his “job”.

What the hell?! That kind of police brutality was totally unnecessary!! Why was the young man stopped and why was that cop able to use such extreme force? This is just another example of a cop that needs better training or shouldn't be on the force at all if he feels it necessary to use that kind of force.

What has happened to this officer Teddy Henderson who is supposed to be serving and protecting?

And where is Tedrick Washington now? Please let us know. Thugs and bullies -not police officers.

Not sure why the kid/streamer wasn’t dressed. But yes. No need for brutality. Clearly cop was angry and using force. Didn’t see the person inside the car fight back. He looked confused. Drugs? Whatever reason. No need for this behavior

This is so disgusting and I’m so tired of it. These people are demonic! Look at the hatred in him while he treats this young man like this.

If you appreciate irony, note that the greatest engines of racial justice, both here and abroad, are not the courts (terminally broken) nor elected officials (bought and paid for), but the children of the tech bros (the internet and smartphones) and individual citizens who use them.
