The white kid that filmed the McKinney Texas Pool Party reportedly said the cops completely ignored him like he was "invisible."
Comment I read:
BuzzFeed also reports that the video which led to the officer’s suspension was shot and uploaded by Brandon Brooks, a white teenager at the pool party who said the officers were only detaining teens who were not white:
“Everyone who was getting put on the ground was black, Mexican, Arabic,” he said. “[The cop] didn’t even look at me. It was kind of like I was invisible.”
Please note that the first few articles I read made it sound like a police officer only handled some black teens at a pool party roughly.
Imagine my surprise when I see a bikini clad girl yanked to the ground, yanked up while screaming for her mother, yanked down again then watch this runt of a cop pull his gun out on the boys (one of mexican or white?) that run up to help the screaming girl.
Can you imagine taking a cell phone camera back in time to 1915 or 1950?
Can you imagine how much abuse these white police officers have been getting away with - if this is what they are doing now in 2015?
"Grace Stone, a white 14-year-old, told BuzzFeed News that when she and her friends objected to the racist comments about public housing an adult woman then became violent."
