He tweeted he didn't do anything wrong

He resisted arrest.......

If you didn't do anything wrong, Don't Resist!!!

But in saying that we did take Robinson after his ordeal, so if BB thinks he's ok i'm all for it!

Or Florida State.  Although at Florida State, the cops resist arrest.  Not the players.

Talking about JoJo? His situation occurred after signing day and it came out that he did nothing wrong.

You win the thread.

Definitely true to an extent. Of course, we should have all heard stories about people doing nothing wrong but still being charged and convicted of crimes. Being black probably makes that worse, especially with what's going on in Ferguson. I'm a quiet, law-abiding white guy, and I've still had cops try to assert dominance over me for no clear reason, so I can see how someone who could have been told his whole life not to trust the police would be less likely to immediately comply. I've also seen plenty of videos of police using anything they can to excuse an obstruction or resisting charge. Basically, I know nothing about this case whatsoever, I could just see how something would go either way with a kid really doing something he shouldn't to having a cop who is abusing his power. I'm sure if there is interest the coaches will do a good job of finding out the truth.

What a crock.  No matter if you're black, white, brown, or red just abide by the laws and you'll avoid being dominated by that nasty old cop.

I take it you've been watching the Ferguson riots.

That's completely untrue, but you're welcome to continue that belief. There are plenty of good cops out there. There are also plenty of ones who seem to feel the need to try to intimidate the general population. If you've never had that happen to you, that's great. But if you honestly think it doesn't happen every day, you're not living in the real world.

Not trying to start a political debate... I'm a white guy. Very pale, infact. And I have nothing against cops... have never had an aggressive altercation with a police officer. Butted up against some rude cops, but nothing crazy.

Still, I highly doubt racial stereotypes don't play into some police altercations... especially when unarmed minorities are being shot. 27 police officers died last year in the line of duty... and unfortunately... nobody knows how many people died at the hand of police officers because there's no regulative body that keeps track of those numbers... the police officers self report them. That's like a teacher telling you that you get to decide your grade...

At any rate... I don't know what the answer is. Maybe you put cameras on the cops that are constantly recording... but unless those are being recorded by 3rd party outfits... that footage is going to be abused by bad cops.

Maybe pay the guys more, because they deserve it for putting their life on the line... and make the acceptance rate into the job more stringent, so you've hopefully got more good cops than bad cops.

But... I don't know. I think cops are like politicians... you give people power... a certain portion of them are going to abuse that power. Unfortunately it's human nature.

I'm white and know a lot of cops (around a dozen) that are white, black and hispanic.

Cops are people and there are good and bad people.  There are also people who strive to be the best at what they do and there are those that live on the low hanging fruit.

Because of some laws and the 'popular' culture of young african Americans there is a higher chance that if a cop stops a young black person that stop will help to make their quota -and yes there are quotas is a LOT of places.

It's said, and rightfully so, that if you have a problem with most of the people you meet the problem may be with you.  It's true with some laws and the popular culture as well.

As I've said complexity is the product of simplicity multiplied over and over.  Sometimes if you multiply enough times you get the proverbial perfect storm.

Or a kid wrongly accused.

-Officer involved shootings/killings are definitely tracked.
-More and more cops are wearing body cams. Constantly recording is stupid, might as well have robots
-most cops do not alter their video recording as that destroys your evidence and more importantly your credibility as an officer. You would get fired
-your correct that some people become law enforcement for the wrong reasons and take the power thing a little too seriously
