Seattle Officer Punches Woman In Face, Claims Woman Was “Verbally Antagonistic”




The Seattle Police is ONCE again the topic of discussion over a recent video that’s surfaced showing an officer punching an African-American women in the face over an apparent gross violation of the law. She jaywalked.

Reports suggest, the officer, who I predict will be fired by the end of the week, asked a group of young ladies over to his patrol car, at which point they became “verbally antagonistic.”

One girl allegedly tried to walk away, and the officer grabbed her to escort her back to his patrol car; the other girl then attempted to separate the officer and the girl. So the officer punched her.

However, if being physically assaulted by an officer of the law, in a city where local authorities are increasingly showing a disregard for young black people, check out the DISGUSTING comments in youtube.com.

After at least 300 years of captivity, oppression, racism and repeatedly being treated like second class citizens in a country that was built on the back of slaves, and it appears that for every step we take forward we take two steps back.

Comments like, “That b*tch deserved it for not being in the kitchen,” and, “N*gger’s should listen to the white man! And do what they are told!!! it should be like the old days!!” are truly shameless.

While there’s no video showing what lead up this event, an officer of the law punching a women in the face, when there was no visible physical threat, in my eyes makes this entire situation inexcusable
