This is the moment (click here) a white policeman uses pepper spray against activists leaving a conference to discuss escalating tensions between officers and black people.
Hundreds of people from across America were attending the Movement for
Black Lives event when the drama unfolded. The conference in Cleveland,
Ohio, follows the deaths of a number of black people involved in police
incidents. The footage, uploaded to LiveLeak, shows people clutching
their eyes in pain with others trying to flee the scene. With tensions
running high a number of scuffles between police and activists broke
out, reports RT.com....
Please tell me police aren't targeting conferences of black Americans. Give me a break already. A 14 year old is perceived as drunk and is arrested. The young man doesn't look drunk to me. He walked just fine. So, what's the deal?
