UVA Honors student brutalized by cops for fake I.D.

Honor student at UVA.

Students gathered in their amphitheater protesting tonight and all over campus....

I'm about to say some shit as I'm angry as hell but I'm gonna keep my mouth shut.....

I do hope there are a lot of our Greek brothers and sisters in the crowd tonight that are exercising their First Amendment rights.

Proud of the students and residents at UVA for protesting and taking a stand.

Thanks for posting this.

It's shocking to me that people are still saying we live in a post-racial America. Spoiler alert: we never have.

It was just a mere year ago that UVA student Elizabeth Daly (an ADPi) settled her lawsuit with Virginia's ABC after they pulled a gun on her for buying water at a gas station. WTF is up in Charlottesville with ABC?:

Why does ABC have police; they're a regulatory agency, not an enforcement agency. One state representative introduced a bill last year to take away their police powers, but it died. Maybe it can get another life.
