Interestingly, the tape begins with the black man attacking the cops. No one really knows what happened during that minute and 37 seconds leading up to that attack. I honestly feel that those cops used excessive force, clearly. There comes a time when it's just human nature to fight back. Clearly, he was on something(drugs) so clearly he's going to fight back not recognizing that he's fighting cops perhaps. Regardless, those cops were out of line.


this is why, this situation is so troubling! i wonder will anyone really know what happened in those first few seconds? unfortunately based on what i have seen and read, i am not sure if i agree that the cops were fully out of line .
