"BALTIMORE — The man who recorded video of Baltimore police officers arresting Freddie Gray was himself arrested on Thursday, according to reports.
Kevin Moore, whose video of the arrest was widely circulated, said he has faced intimidation from police since April 12 when police apprehended Gray."
This is the same type of police thug like behavior which was confronted by the man who filmed the Eric Garner police strangulation on TV. They arrested him twice, he said he was framed, and while in Rikers Island Jail rat poison was found in his and other Inmates in his cell block's food. American policing culture is corrupt and has been since it's formal inception in the 19th century. The average IQ of an American police officer is 104. Officers generally are not college educated and were not good students in high school. They come in large part from the white working class, the most openly bigoted element in American society. We must change this culture.
The riot in Baltimore is the only reason these murderous police were charged, unlike on Staten Island where Eric Garner was strangled to death on video and no one was charged or where 12 year old Tamir Rice was murdered by an officer while harmlessly playing with a toy gun. The Baltimore riot raised the decision cost for American Society. As rapper Jasiri X poignancy said a few months ago. "Do we need to start a riot?"
