Honestly after reading the comments I don't have anything to add other than that corruption is worldwide and people treat each other like animals now. Change is uncomfortable and difficult to adjust to but its a must today. For change to happen we the people must learn and knowledge ourselves so when incidents like this happen we can avoid violence! I am Arabic and I encountered many cops before but never had any negative situation at all. I know my rights and I listen to orders given. If we let our pride and ego overrule our judgement in life we will continue to face similar issues as the one we witness in that video. If we knowledge ourselves we can make this country better. You don't have to have money to become better. We rise above when we lift others high. Try doing something to influence others to do better. Start writing or become a motivational speaker, just do something other than staying home.  Steve Jobs didn't even finish college but look how he changed this world. Today, many people sit at home wasting time playing video games or hanging out with friends and don't use their time wisely learning something new. I bet not many even know what is happening in the middle east even till now. knowledge is power but unfortunately many people's excuse is that they don't have money for anything. People I am not saying go and create a miracle, I am just saying instead of wasting your life on absolutely wasteful things you should be using your time to find something that will improve this world. Start writing or speaking or helping In anyway!!! In that video I am not on anyone side because I wasn't there to witness it. The cops did what they did because they too were threatened. I mean don't you people think about it. No one is perfect and they were wrong slamming the mother to the ground. If they didn't resist it wouldn't have escalated to that extent. Many reasons could factor to the reason why the mother was slammed like that. In the video the boys were screaming mom, mom, mom. They clearly show that they care about something called Family. If you think about it from a humane perspective. The cops also have families waiting for them at home. This situation could have been avoided if the family stopped resisting and left everything else to the judge. It almost seems like a pride of lions fighting another pride! We all treat one another like animals. Its true at first everyone wants to be nice but deep down hatred rules all hearts because it is lead by a simple thing called Selfishness. Just obey the law and increase you knowledge.
