its always the police beating on the brown man (no joke cnn bika reporting)


INGLEWOOD, California (CNN) -- The FBI is conducting is own investigation of the videotaped beating of a handcuffed black teenager in this Los Angeles suburb, officials said Tuesday.

The amateur videotape of the Saturday incident, which aired on local and national television Monday, shows a white police officer throwing Donovan Chavis, 16, against a police car and punching him in the face.

An attorney for Chavis described the teen as a developmentally disabled special education student with no arrest record who did not understand what was happening, the Los Angeles Times reported.

The incident also is under investigation by the city's police department, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the district attorney's office.

Inglewood Mayor Roosevelt F. Dorn told dozens of protesters who showed up Tuesday at city hall demanding a meeting that the officer should be fired.

Dorn said he had ordered the suspension of Jeremy Morse, a three-year veteran of the police force. No action has been taken against three other officers and two Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies at the scene.

"In my city, this type of conduct will not be tolerated," Dorn said to cheers from the protesters. "It is my opinion that he should be fired."

The cop that punched the kid looks like a damn punk. And he has been accused of police brutality in the past. I can just see it ... another LA riot. . . . *sigh*

Seriously, I joke around police abusing their powers...and most of them do, but minimally. Like running reds, speeding, and such...stuff anyone would do if they had the power.

But this kind of stuff just makes me SICK!
Officer shouldn't only get fired...but get a chance to be beaten up by the kid!
