Man Attacks Baltimore Police Officer That's Arresting Someone Else

Sadly, the guy that risks his own ass to help the guy getting his ass kicked by the cops, only to be the next guy getting his ass kicked by the cops.
Looks like the original guy got away but if more of the people there had been as brave and acted as quickly as he did when he caused that opening, they all could have gotten away leaving those cops to stand there with their puny little mace cans in their hands lookin around like "wtf just happened?"

that was not a man attacking, thats one of those cops trying to instigate and arrest people, black people. Something of a test....they do it all the time,,,

what is very wrong? Be specific. I've watched the video at least 4 times. What proof do you see that this is fake, or that the guy that gets arrested is a cop?

Look at how he is being hit, there is no re-bounce to the hitting fists, he got hit straight in the face, he should be bleeding by then since it was a direct kick to the face. And this guy comes from no where all of the sudden, all people appear to be black around this scenario. I'm just saying its kind of suspecting it was a mock setup to see if other people joined in, like a testing ground to see if the public had what it takes, especially black people to if they would take the bait and get arrested or even defy police authority under those circumstances. I do not know. What I know is that most cops wear jeans, some nike shoes, and a jacket, typical of an under cover police.

But he didnt really come out of no where all of a sudden. If you notice in the beginning of the video, he(the guy you think is a cop) is standing right in front of the camera man off to the left. The camera man circles around him to his left and he winds up off camera to the right.
I know what you're saying but this wasnt a gathering or protest, the cops wouldnt have the time to plan and organize such an elaborate fake. If you ask me, those cops looked pretty freaked out. Especially that one white cop that was tackled. I just doesnt look like a set up event to me.

Oh mex... I don't think it was faked at all !
This video even sort of made mine and Daniel's day yesterday.
I find it to be a magnificently courageous act of compassion ! ! !

Cops are used to people just looking on... if they EXPECTED things like this could happen.... they'd be more cautious about the way they handle people. If things like this became common... cops would think twice about their aggressive techniques. ( all my opinion of course )

There were probably 40 plus people looking on... and ONE MAN'S blood boiled to the point where he couldn't watch any longer !
