A New York City police officer who appears to punch a black youth during an arrest that was captured on video and widely circulated on the Internet has been suspended from duty, the department said on Friday.

The posting of the footage follows weeks of protests across the country over recent cases of police violence toward unarmed black men, including one in which a New York City man died after an officer placed him in a banned chokehold.

In the eight-minute video posted on YouTube on Wednesday, a plainclothes white officer can be seen rushing up to several uniformed officers struggling to handcuff a black youth and apparently striking him at least twice. Police said the suspect is 16 years old.

Several bystanders, including the person filming the altercation, yell at the officer to stop. The footage then shows a second person, who onlookers tell police is a 12-year-old boy, being handcuffed.

As the boys are led away to patrol vehicles, one can be heard asking the officers: “What did we do? Can I hear what we did?”

The boys were being arrested on suspicion of assaulting someone and using a cane in the attack, police said.

Police did not say when the arrests occurred but the person who posted the video footage said they happened on Wednesday.

Police said that a review by the Internal Affairs Bureau into the allegations was ongoing.

Didn't say all that, but your 'scenario' was stupid and your argument is based on outliers, not 'normal' encounters.

#Smartenupnas.​

No its not outliers. You have thousands of people telling you this has happened to them. You have video evidence of cops killing people then lying about what happened. This is a "normal" encounter with police in America and the police almost never have to answer for it.

It's crazy to me that we as Americans can watch a video of an incoent 12 year old be thrown in cuffs and beaten, and the debate is over whether he knew how to get arrested respectfully or not. Really? So what do you think we should start having "how to get arrested" classes in middle school?

That video is disgusting for a supposedly "free" country.

No, you don't. You have many people acting like idiots and getting their cards pulled which overshadows those people with legitimate complaints.​

No, you don't. You have many people acting like idiots and getting their cards pulled.​

So John Crawford was "acting like an idiot" when he got shot?

The 'legitimate complaints' are outliers.​

If he didn't do anything, he had no reason to struggle with them. If he had cuffs on him, then he obviously started something he couldn't finish. I got arrested/detained when I was that young and all they did was put me in the back of the police car. No cuffs. Walked outta the department a couple hours later with no record and not charged with anything. They even gave me cab fare home and apologized for detaining me.

Kids need to be educated on how to deal with police. Reacting violently against them gets us nowhere but in jail/prison or dead.
​

at this slave mentality. I understand it helped you to survive that situation in one piece but it still blows my mind how people have allowed themselves to submit to an absolute authority

If the kids have done nothing wrong they should be MORE willing to be cuffed? Do you realise how retarded that sounds? How about the cops do their job properly and actually find out what's going on before they start going into rambo mode on some kids ffs...and If they're 12 year old kids, how do you expect them to know that it'll be alrite in the end. Citizens have got to be experts in law and psychology to deal with cops when cops could be TRAINED better in things like conflict resolution etc.

If the kids have done nothing wrong they should be MORE willing to be cuffed?

No, you stupid fukk. If the kids did nothing wrong, they wouldn't get cuffed. If the cuffs DO come out, struggling is liable to get you murked/beat down and they will be JUSTIFIED for doing it.

LOL @ 'slave mentality'.

You're an imbecile fake militant on a message board.

Shut up.​

Someone hasn't been paying attention for the last 500 years

 

[Joe Sixpack]

Are @jilla82 and @Dafunkdoc_Unlimited white?

Jilla82 is horrible. He always advocates towards the white man point of view. He's a black dude that loves white women tho. He's been posting since

He's just a dikk.

[MeachTheMonster]

Nah dude should have bent over and took his rights being violated more respectfully, so he could wake up in the morning and beg the courts to give a shyt.

The cop resigned in the slap video...but here's a question...

[/quote]"The video is difficult to place in the context of the person we know," Chauvin said. "I hope the 20-plus years he's put into the community doesn't go unnoticed," he said adding, "There are two sides to every story."[/quote]

Can we assume this cop has been smacking the shyt out of people for 20+ years? At the very least right?

On videos...
I know Garner got ZERO justice, and I know there are probably more cops that get off than not. BUT, IMHO the more people continue to post on Youtube and department FB pages the sooner these fukers get weeded out.

 

[NoMayo15]

This scenario is dumb and doesn't happen.

Try again.
​

Wait, so which is it? These things DON'T happen, or they sometimes do, but they're outliers.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

@Dafunkdoc_Unlimited that shyt you're advocating is the definition of slave mentality. It's exactly what slaves do.

Respectfully accept tyranny and abuse, just for the right to stay alive to beg your oppressors not to do it so hard next time.

That's the relationship between cops and citizens that you're advocating.

This is supposed to be a free country
