Only part of the video shows that. The rest shows a violent man (possibly high on PCP) not caring about his own safety and resisting arrest for a DUI. Charging police officers and such as well.You don't give black people enough credit. The Rodney King case, involving a half a dozen police officers kicking and beating a defenseless man with clubs, is a lot different from defending yourself against a violent criminal. Most people, black or white, will agree that the criminal gets what he deserves if he gets hurt mugging someone.
Not to say that the sheer severity of the beating was justified, but it wasn't as clear cut as the officers just beating a black man for ****s and giggles.
