      You didn't see it because the video is blurred so as not to show nudity.
      Did he check World Star for the video?

        Yeah, they actually did.

        "Regardless of how to look at the record no one can fairly say that it shows anything approaching the 'pervasive,' 'flagrant,' 'widespread,' and 'rampant' discrimination that faced Congress in 1965, and that clearly distinguished the covered jurisdictions from the rest of the nation."

        No more racism!

            It reads anything approaching what was in 1965.

                "Human nature" does not exist. Our behavior is normative. Norms are arbitrary and we can improve ourselves and our society. We are not doomed to be pigs for all eternity, and those who remain pigs aren't "natural," they're just deficient.

                    Yep.

                    You're making the classic mistake of confusing patterns observed in nature -- physical laws -- with patterns observed in society -- conventions. Racism is a convention, not a determined characteristic. We know this because people become less racist under the right circumstances. That doesn't happen with, say, trying to fly by flapping your wings. That's the difference between our physical limitations and our social handicaps.

                          Having a Cell Phone While Black

                          From the Facebook Page:

                          From Ex-NFL Player Desmond Marrow: "I was falsely arrested & taken into custody in Atlanta by the Henry County Police . I only had my cell phone in my possession and they claimed to be scared for their lives . I had no type of weapon in my possession. I was arrested for having a gun that turned out to be my cell phone. During the arrest the police knocked my teeth out, slammed me on my head and choked me out until I was unconscious. In addition I suffered a shoulder strain and a concussion. They threw me into isolation and labeled me a gang member because of my tattoos. I was fully cooperating with the officers with ZERO resistance.

                          I thought I was going to die. Henry County police dept was trying to keep me quiet, but once they found out I was a former NFL player & there was a video of the incident did they then try to drop my charges. They were basically trying to get me to sell my soul in exchange for the video not being posted and they would drop all the felonies and clear my record. They said I was resisting arrest, being out of control, spitting and assaulting the Officers by head butting them. But GOD recorded it and I have PROOF!"

                              Few bad apples, coulda happened to a white guy just as easily. Just look at all the videos of cops assaulting innocent white guys.

                                And yet people accused me of an overreaction when I say white supremacy groups are actively infiltrating police departments in many places in this country, despite well researched articles detailing just this in the legitimate media. I believe it is a bigger problem than even that media has led us to believe, in fact. This kind of behavior by police simply did not happen with such alarming regularity 30 years ago. It isn't just the advent of a camera in everybody's hands either that more readily reveals it. If it was, the cops themselves would be adjusting their behavior. The truth is it IS happening far more frequently. And since the cops know the chances of them suffering even as much as a termination are slim and none, nothing else is giving them much of a reason to stop.

                                What we are likely heading to, in five years, or maybe 10, but we're heading to it, is an entire population of people who so fear the police (rightly, in many cases) that they will be taking matters into their own hands. I'm surprised it hasn't happened already actually.
