Yes, the boy was mistreated by the police.
No it wasn’t 🙄
@@LovesoapyYes, he was mistreated. Why are you calling the young boy "it"?
@@Lovesoapyfor selling roses yes he was neo bigot
The officers came in with a bad attitude and escalated immediately. It's common for kids to sell roses, candy, cookies, etc. around Charleston without a license. The cops are trained to de-escalate, but the cop puts his hands on the kid without telling him he was under arrest or being detained. The cops chose violence.
Not! He is the usual foul-mouthed punk kid who has no respect for authority. And, as usual, the race card is played. How typical these days. The parents are enabling his behavior by not condemning his behavior. People are getting tired of these thugs getting a slap on the wrist for their violent behavior!
Racist masquerading as police spotlights their genuine character nationwide.
Theses two cops should be fired and charged
And police nationwide should stop responding to 911 calls from the ghetto.
@@JackTheSkunk your comment “sounds about white”
Are you stupid
And fired charged and prison
Like your nasty hood @@JackTheSkunk
Violence towards a child.. . I commend the child for not stealing
Thanks for your bold and courageous comment. You are one of the few people that referred to him as a child. Even the lawyer referred to him as a *young man* which does not help. I am happy that he was not selling drugs or stealing.
At least the kid wasn't out selling drugs, the cops did handle it too aggressive. It looks to me that the cop was accidentally hit in the face by the kids elbow when he was thrown to the ground.
Why would grown man throw a 13 year old to the ground kid wasn’t a mass murderer
at Walmart. Kid was trying to earn money any thinking adult would applaud that.
A boy of 13 yrs was treated worse than a criminal.Nothing will change.
It is a criminal!
@@Lovesoapyyour son is
Those cops was the aggressors. They treated the kid like he was a criminal . Their trying to use the fact that he hit them so they say as an excuse to justify their actions .
Exactly!!
cops may claim, but the video does not bear that out. cops were obviously and solidly in the WRONG
Somebody should say it. If it was a white 13-year-old kid, they would have talked it out and called their parents, but since it was a black kid, the cops attacked.
yes because the white kid probably wouldn't have started cussing at and fighting with the police
Stop being racist! The police escalated an issue that they could have defused easily. This is a child and they do not always know the laws white or black. He was selling roses does that seem like a big deal to you? Trying to make money outside of crime and you still treat him as a criminal!
@@royharper2003 The police got the same energy they came with. If they had come up politely and not aggressively then maybe he would not have cursed at them. Secondly although it is private property all they could have done is ask him to move along. They did not, began asking for his ID and then grabbed him.
@@njemilenantan2269 The police asked the people loitering, including this kid, to leave from their patol car while driving past them. This kid ignored them and that's why they had to approach him. All the kid had to do was move along when they told him to the first time.
The police saw this young man, and because of the color of his skin, immediately treated him poorly. I have seen drunk unruly white boy cursing the police and they allowed his friends to promise to bring him home. White people looking through their rose colored glasses always want to comment on realities that unknown to them. When they stop convincing themselves that black people are the problem, looking at themselves in the mirror will be uncomfortable.
He was only selling roses .. God bless him !
He was breaking the law. God Bless him.
@@TruthFairy106your a pig god bless me
The whole thing stinks! A 13 year old child threatened with a taser. This child was assaulted.
He broke the law and is accountable for his actions!!
Everyone needs to follow rules, even black kid's!!
Dang you obviously haven't had sex in a min. Calm down, Karen before you break a vessel...
We wouldn't want you to get your blood pressure up now would we?
Please get justice for this little boy.
Back in the day I would have gotten my a--- beatin'!.. case closed!
Y'all are talking about he fought the officers in resisted arrest when he shouldn't even have been touched as a minor
It's private property you must get permission.
Kids don’t know nor understand that. Those cops had a great opportunity to explain that to him and also tell him how to get a business license. They fked up! No deescalation! They came in hot
That's right!
@@beautifulyou2no they were NOT aggressive the little man certainly was though
That cop violated his 1st amendment civil rights. Cussing is protected speech. He grabbed him because he cussed again. Never mentioned trespassing at all. Neither one did! They both came in hotheaded period
@@beautifulyou2 the store managers told him. He didn’t leave. The cops were called. How can you talk to someone when he curses the cops and punches one in the eye.
Pathetic that air time is given to support a poorly raised child. Shameful!
Not only raised poorly, but looking for a payday as well. No shame.
Cops are egotistical assholes also the whole thing could of been took care of if cop didn't show attitude. Person selling flowers pig acted like he robbed a bank
Your Momma was poorly raised,the proof is she conceived you.
poorly raised child?? that’s a deflection and a racist trope that’s been debunked 1000 times…. So what’s the excuses for all the Mass school shooters… who fits that description.. and most of them come from 2 parent households ….
Shame on you both! Read the constitution, educate yourselves. Ignorance is destroying our country and the two of you are proof!
Criminals don't have the same rights, he was breaking the law as you can see from the sign. Then he used racial slurs. Then he punched a cop. The people behind that podium are the problem, and the reason this young juvenile thinks it's ok to act like that.
Well, because slavery.
EXACTLY!
@@corbinhbucknerjr558 Well, Ham should have left Noah alone and let him sleep it off.
Hater
He didn't punch a cop. The cops tried to bend that child's body all the way down to his feet trying to break his back. Terrible!
The parents and lawyer should be ashamed of themselves. The kid was completely wrong with cursing and resisting to begin with. This is the problem with young people today.
You would physically assault and threaten to electrocute a 13 yr old if he didn't comply with your demands?
Callin the cop a b*tch is freedom of speech. Even if it hurts feeling.
You really mean disobedient black people.... Keep it real, Esau...
A 13-year-old child calling anyone a "b"> is a reflection of a moral compass instilled in him that's sideways. Someone failed in creating for him a solid fountain for him to come to, that he can build on. Disrespectful, violent behavior, cussing, he's set up to fail. 😢'Train your child in the way they should go'', he needs a base where he finds peace and virtue, not chaos and disruption. Seeing a child up for failure should be a crime. I pray for him to have a discernment so he has eyes to see what is evil. Jesus loves the little children and those who have caused them harm will be punished. Parents protect your children satan is coming for them.
The cops began this encounter with violence the fact anyone would think this is OK is disturbing he was selling roses same thing girlscouts do threatening to taze a child trying to make an honest buck is deplorable
what those cops did to that child is totally unexceptable.
So he basically is saying that businesses must allow people to sell items in front of their stores because they are trying to make money but people don’t want to be approached by a bunch of people getting in their faces to make purchases. For many it’s uncomfortable. This wasn’t a race issue if Walmart called them. Honestly I feel like the family is trying to use this to file a lawsuit to get money. Walmart has signs about no loitering but he is trying to say that they should be allowed because kids want to make money. Also girls scouts selling cookies have permission AHEAD OF TIME
Walmart is part of the corrupt elites.
Also, now that I think about it the Girl Scouts are a well known organization with identifiable uniforms and always work in groups with adults supervising. Big difference.
29 minutes of talking to say nothing useful. Crazy
Your not useful hater. Truth is haters are being exposed. Get in line.
@@carolynnewton6148 you’re* learn to spell before you trying talking to me stupid
@@carolynnewton6148 you’re not your learn the difference before you try talking to me
This is ridiculous. Assuming this report is accurate there were complaints by customers trying to leave the store and being
troubledd by the behavior of this children who, because they had not yet been taught how to behave in public should not have been left unsupervised in public places where they were trespassing.
You really mean disobedient black people.... Keep it real, Esau... All white/edomites feel the same. Esau/the white man, always oppressing the black man/Judah/the real WEJ. Christ is kcalb... Yup...
Did you watch the vid? Kid is in the wrong. He has no respect for the Law. He hits an Officer. These ppl should be ashamed for defending this aggressive teen!
They were all standing there filming though 🤬🤬🤬
If the young man had to have a cordial with the officers and Walmart management this would have ended totally different Walmart Management may have actually worked with the young men
PLEASE WATCH ALL VIDEOS NOT JUST ANYONE'S EDITED VERSION. This is the only way to know what really happened.
i watched the body cam video the "boy" was disrespectful, didn't comply and fought both officers and resisted arrest.
odd how the other boy with him complied and didn't end up on the ground...
So a cop being fired from 2 other departments he's a good cop
That cop is a THUG
So a punk disregarding a business and police asking him to leave is OK? So punching a female cop in the face is OK?! You are part of the problem!!!
@@johngray2511 And a 13 year old who trespasses and refuses to leave, refuses a lawful order after the police are called, throws racial slurs, is completely disrespectful and belligerent and assaults a female by hitting her in the face and giving her a black eye is a good teen?
@@johngray2511Please post a link with that info.
trying to make the brat look innocent..... nothing new...
Omg…are you freaking kidding me? He had been told he couldn’t do it before, he kept returning to do it, the cops were called, he got an attitude and fought the police, assaulted the female cop and was arrested. He is a thug and you all are looking for a payout.🤬🤬
Yes!
Yes, they’re just waiting for the ink to dry on the check.
Absolutely that good boy mom is looking for 🤑🤑🤑 I hope she doesn't get a penny
My thought exactly. If the kid was white and this also happened to him the exact same way there wouldn’t be a conference about this. It gets old seeing these complaints like this because a person who is black gets arrested. If the arrest was warranted then the arrestee needs to fix his attitude
His Mother sent him out to sell the "Roses" so that she can maintain her lifestyle.
, et al
It's overly obvious with her CHANNEL (BLING) earrings, her exspensive hairstyle and Columbia jacket that she is very much proud of her clothing, looks, jewelry, et al.....
She sent her son during his spring break at 13 years old to go make money for her lifestyle. That young man wants to play with friends not sell weeds for his mother's sick motivations.
The young people today think it’s alright to argue until they get their way. No sympathy for people that don’t teach your children respect! Teach your children to respect authority! if you’re told to something, do it! It’s that’s simple!!!!!
Bull shit! Marvin Pendarvis give me a break.
The parents and their lawyer should be ashamed. This boy should have arrested. They saw what they wanted to see in the video. That boy could have went to any street corner to sell roses.
Parant singel mommy.
Shut up I bet what kind u are shut up.
@@slayer6936 learn to spell first before you try to insult someone.
Your nuts anyone who saw this video and watched the way those copes approached and talked to that pour 13 year old. It’s discussing
These people demand video and blatantly lie about it! The punch was very clear! Her bruised eye was very clear! Their view is so myopic! Heard enough! I think this dude likes listening to his own voice. Stop repeating this "entrepreneurial" trope!
Sometimes, some things should just stay private.
When you resist arrest the way he probably did, that's a bad look. Stop trying to bo up against the police. It's not smart
@comedyforlife7 you hadn't even seen the video and you said ",probably " is part of the problem.
He was grabbed before he was told he was under arrest.
Why are you in black business that has nothing to do.🔊MIND YOUR BUSINESS!!!🤡
The officers were called to the location due to a complaint about these two children. They were trespassing. They were asked to move along and refused. That is the entire reason for the altercation. You don’t get paid because you raise a child who has no respect for adults or law enforcement. You should be apologizing to the police for the way your son disrespected them instead of acting like a victim.
Amen! Now they want to claim racism.. how many times blacks attack white people and nothing gets said about it?
Wow. You should watch the video again.
That officer walked up acting like a thug, Maybe treat the kid with respect and a little decency, That Tyrant deserves no respect. Blue line Gang got tired of old ladies now they are beating kids. You don't see it cause busy copsucking and the boot is in the way. No reason to be an Asshole just because he is a Sovereign citizen and the gang members will protect him with the usual, We investigated ourselves and did no wrong
I just watched the video. This comment is very accurate about what happened. The punk azz disrespectful kids were Definitely showing hateful attitude towards a legitimate action from.LEO. Wal-Mart called the police to remove the kids from property! You see the punk arguing and cussing LEO and resisting commands. He Definitely punched the female officer in the face!!!! You think she pop herself????! You people need to admit the problem is your Unruly, Disrespectful, Lawbreaking kids!!!! Take accountability for your people!!!! Quit trying to blame racism and trying to get a check for Your Own wrongful Actions!!! It is a JOKE that you claim the punk and his momma are traumatized!!!! GTFOH!!!
@@ClarityDetermination You ought to. The male policeman could have been nicer....but the 13 year old (adult sized) was defiant, uncooperative, and outrageously behaved. These kids knew that
It is not a good idea for adults to tell l a 13 year old then if they feel any "offense" in the way he is spoken to by any adult, that it is then OK for the 13 year old to be a foul mouthed, smart ass who gets to throw his fists around in response. I know this because I raised 4 children...and in my experience many 13 year olds don't like what they are told, or how they are treated by adults at regular intervals. Teaching them to control themselves and "and in the meantime follow the rules and be respectful" is the best thing a parent can do for the teens, their schools, and their communities.
“Physical and emotional toll”…aka Summerville residents…get ready to open your wallets. This family wants their payout b/c their son doesn’t know how to obey orders.
The police acted like thugs.
What should have happened is, the officers should have asked where his parents are and been more professional in finding out what is actually taking place and not just go on a power trip cause I'm the police and I çan do whatever I want". It's not just in Summerville, it's all over. These boot jack thug cops are bully tyrants and have been trained to be alphas in any case regardless of the circumstances. It's gotten out of hand it goes even farther than cops. It's thier bosses, commissionors ,judges and the entire judicial process when cops violate laws but get a slap on the wrist. Until people stand up for thier rights, it's going to get worst. They violated that young man by questioning him about anything as a minor without thier parent being present, not to mention a cop can't just give a trespass without a complaint, as well as they can't solicit for a trespass. The boy should have gotten a few more jabs on both them tyrants ass
@@ClarityDeterminationNo the police did their jobs and the reason you don’t like that is because you don’t understand obeying the law and have no respect for the law. I’m not trying to be disrespectful towards you but only stating the truth of what I see based on all your comments.
Time to say no to this outrageous ploy for money. Make the parents pay instead. They should have to post a dangerous kids bond until they learn to parent.
@@backdeck9978 'dangerous kids bond' I really like that idea!
You sir are a failure to the children and parents of today. You are legitimizing the bad behavior of the child and lack of respect that the parents have instilled in him. Blame the lack of respect that I believe is spread thru music. And yes he did strike the police officer. He was guilty because they did not want him there. Other organization ask for permission is how it's done by the way.
These people are pathetic, the parents should be arrested for their sons behavior.

And your ppl🤔
if he had just cooperated it would never have happened. of course he has no fault. what should they have done rubbed his head and patted his back.
They were called because the store asked them to leave. Stop trying to draw sympathy. He did not look like he was 13 first of all. Boy scouts, girl scouts, all get permission way ahead of time to be there. How about the store video did you ask for that? If not its because you know you would see a whole different story.
I bet he didn't look like he was 13 they just accused of 9 year old boy of being 27 and a robbery suspect
So how does a 13 year old boy look
Defiant entitled criminals always cry wolf. Teach your children manners and respect.
And to take responsibility for their part in all that! The parents are teaching their kids that they can do No Wrong, and if there's trouble, it's always everyone else's fault! Sad! Disgusting parents!
Lol. Tell us eu hate Black people without telling us eu hate Black people.
Tell us you think all Black ppl are criminals without telling us you believe all Black ppl are criminals.
Always the victim 😢
Exactly. No accountability
💯💯and looking for 🤑
That kid was a disrespectful snot to those officers! You want sympathy for the entitled brat and the family that didn’t teach him right from wrong or respect?? Yeah right!!
RU kidding me? This is ridiculous. They'll always be a crooked lawyer right behind. It's illegal to sell roses at Walmart. Stupid kid should have packed up and left. Price he's got to pay for being stupid..and a minor thug. He's going to jail and NO $$$$ should be paid to that thug.
I don't agree with you.
The teen should be charged with failure to identify, resisting arrest & assault on a peace officer.
CPS should be called on the parents. If they can’t parent, take the child away!!
That's a bit dramatic
@@Snowflake397Parental responsibility is long overdue.
He swung on a cop yall slow
So he swung on the woman but then swing on the man who was holding him make that make sense
I like how they don't mention how foul mouth he was to the cops and hitting the cop also...
Who cares! The child was selling roses. He wasn't robbing anyone.
He'll be in trouble again.
Poor parenting produces Criminals!

I’m so glad that Summerville police released the video and that this family also showed themselves in a video. That way I get to see what a family who does not teach a 13 year old boy and soon to be a man what respect is, or that following the law is important and teaching him that hitting a woman in the face with a close fist is perfectly fine and calling her racial slurs is acceptable. I also get to see first hand in my own hometown how the race card is played and have to see a lawyer explain to me that I didn’t see what I saw in the video - thank you to him for clearing that up for me since he feels that folks are to ignorant to decipher what they see with their own eyes. I also get to see his mother and uncle and see what bad parenting by family members literally looks like - shame on his family and shame on the Summerville police department if they fire these officers for doing their job. Mom and Uncle - I expect you to step up and be honorable and pay for that woman’s medical bills where your son and nephew smacked her in the face, but I know you won’t because you’re only interested in playing the race card, not in doing the right thing.

If so good luck with your own sons...I am so glad you are not my neighbor.
In almost all these cases when Black youth are involved in some kind of situation with police there is never any father - A 1988 study found that the percentage of single-parent households with children aged 12 to 20 was significantly associated with rates of violent crime and burglary.
Broken families (including single-parent households) may contribute to an environment where crime rates are higher. Forty-two percent of Black in placement, even though Black Americans comprise only 15% of all youth - Black youth were 4.7 times as likely to be placed (i.e., detained or committed) in juvenile facilities as their white peers. This disparity has hardly changed over the past decade - Something is radically wrong with single family households.
As a single mother after my divorce l can tell you why this is an issue too and it's because these women BOTH black and white have no doggone clue how to effectly discipline their children. They either think their children are suppose to learn by osmosis and when they do something wrong beat the living tar out of them or let them do whatever they want when they are young and then throw their hands up and expect everyone else or the police to do something about their out of control behavior. It's not their job to be these kids parents and none of these women know how to be either. Instead of keeping their rearends home and making sure these kids are in the house they are out in the club shaking their azz making the next kid while the older ones are out in the streets doing who knows what and their excuse is you have to let them have some freedom. These kids are out in the streets at 12, 13, 14 carjacking, killing, shooting, stabbing, etc. If you want to raise good kids you give up your life to do so PERIOD.
not all Black people are a like
@@ShantalhaitianPrincess you missed this part of my post "... almost all these cases..."
Officers are innocent. His parents need to learn how to raise their children.
Have you watched the vid???
It was clearly the kids fault. He argued abt needing a license. Kid was belligerent. Taser, kid NOT in handcuffs. Apparently he is above the Law!
It’s pathetic that his attitude is ok with the parents .
The parents have the same attitude.
Lot of nei kkk bigots on here
POINT MISSED!! Keep that same attitude and energy when it's your mother, wife, daughter or son!!!🤮🤮
Dear Mother, please teach your son not to hit women in the face, which her son did.

He didn't hit anyone
He didn’t punch the officer. They had his hands. The officer let go and hit her own face by herself.
I don’t see him punching the officer in the video
🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕 teach the tyrants to be public servants and not manhandle black children. Teach them to treat black children the same way they’d treat white children. And stop posting lies on every post. The video clearly shows he did not hit the cop
I was raised that way to this day I still remove my hat when I pass a lady weather it's a young lady or an elderly lady
All that kid needed to do was LEAVE when he was asked to. Instead, he chose to fight with the Police. They used a minimal about of force to get him under control. His parents should've raised him better.
This dude appears to be a total race Hustler, corrupt attorney in my opinion. Rose pedalers refuse to abide by the law and don't seek business licenses or ASK PERMISSION. Then act a fool. It's that simple.

Yeah, go away, go home. Your child was trespassing and showed ZERO respect for the officers attempting to trespass him. He is a thug, not a victim. Drop the race card and get yerself some ethics. Also, maybe actually "parent" this kid. Sad that these folks want to make a lawsuit out of this BS. Stop chasing headlines because you are losing credibility defending people like this out of control child. Remember his size as well as his age.
Mr. Marvin Pendarvis is spouting a lot of nonsense
💯💯💯
Abolish Qualified Immunity and then DISBAND THE ENTIRE AMERICAN POLICE FORCES IMMEDIATELY.
Dear Mr. Pendarvis,
So the kid "did not want to be arrested" and that is why he fought back?? I raised 4 children, and find that rationale ludicrous.
A huge part of raising children is getting them to accept and cooperate with many many things they do not "want" without
"fighting back" That is called growing into a mature, functioning, and responsible citizen!
If I had not done so with committed consistency my own children might still be throwing food on the floor while sitting in high chairs! Why have parents lost all common sense.? Mr. Pendarvis I hope you do have children and that they turn out well. But it is serious work to teach children to control their impulses and worst instincts and behave maturely. It is a dangerous world for all of us if parents do not do this. This mother looks so confused and forlorn and "victimized" Putting ALL the blame on the policeman is not doing anything for this boy and his mother..... Because he will behave badly, or arrogantly, or stupidly again and his Mom will still not understand a thing.
Oh bs!
They could've done better instead of approached him so mean and then start the gaslighting. Should have just explained the law on peddling without a business license & how he could acquire one. That would be a public service to a citizen. However, they would've never treated a white kid like that. In the comment section someone said the male officer was fired from another precinct for grabbing a kids wrist.
The Attorney speaking for the family is indeed correct on those tyrants behavior
@@beautifulyou2 I NEVER thought the male officer did a good job, in fact it was poor. But his using profanity does not give the kid permission to do the same and worse nor does it give him permission to resist and fight back. I believe it is irresponsible and dangerous to teach or allow kids to believe that compliance with a police officer is a choice rather than an obligation.
Had this 13 year old not behaved so badly, (as the whole incident was recorded,) this officer's impatient and sarcastic initial interaction might have been the 3rd strike perhaps required to finally get him out of his job!

OH my gosh,
Sir go look for some young men who have lost their way and try to help them.
They seeing $$$$.
Watch the arrest video bodycams and one can quickly discern there are no concerns re: "allegations" ..
I don't cut this kid any slack for his behavior and while it's understandable for the parents to come to his defense is .. its really *sad based on the facts.
The background (as I understand from what was reported) was that there were reports of shoppers feeling they were hassled by "aggressive sales approaches" at the Walgreens entrance/exit. This was reported to Walgreens Mgmt whom then requested police involvement to get the youths moved off their premises. The police responded and gave them an initial warning.
When the police returned 40 mins later it was obvious they ignored the 1st warning ..this escalated the situation.
The disrespect from the 14 year old with: "I don't have to tell you my name" "I don't have to give you my ID" .. "..F**k You.."
shown a total lack of understanding of his situation in correlation to how the law works.
I blame the parents for not instilling this understanding and to know when to back down from the law.
Had the kids immediately left after their 2nd warning, all would have been fine.
Instead, the 14 year "stood his ground" was disrespectful and escalated the situation.
The 14 yr olds defiance might have been ignored but considering the above background I don't believe that the correct way to handle that situation.
The police demanded the kid back down or face consequences and the youth justgot more angered and was arrested.
During the attempt to arrest the youth the 14 year punched and officer.
I think that a court of law will consider the above info and the evidence (2) body cam footage and charge the youth with assault .
Nobody wants their kids to get into trouble like this but supporting this kind of behavior is BS.
*These relatives either don't have all the facts or they are biased against the law.
The police department tried to say the male cope tried to deescalate the situation at the start. What a bunch of bull. That male cops was aggressive right from the start.
Show me where the male officer was aggressive please
So is this guy REALLY a lawyer??? They all are just trying to cause a big stir and get some $$$ out of it. And all the negative comments about the female officer....hey, kid ought to be grateful she WAS a woman. A male officer would have punched him out in a second. They should be more concerned about why the kid acts this way instead of threatening a lawsuit. Guess they think Walmart gonna write them a big check. Lady, go home and take care of your son. I'm embarrassed for you.
oh please! Raise your kids right and teach them respect and he would go far. 13 years old , you will be visiting him behind bars soon.
Why you don't raise yours right if you did they wouldn't be racists todat
Here we go, that mark under her eye just magically appear there, he's done nothing wrong, he goes to church, he's a straight A student, he help little old ladies across the street, he pick up a sick dog and nurse it back to health, oh my boy is innocent and sweet he wouldn't hurt a fly....
His supporters are claiming that the female officer is at fault because “she walked into his fist”. You can’t make this stuff up.
Thug....!!!
He punched that female officer with a closed fist. The other dude, didn’t act like the 13 yo. Cops have attitudes. Are you going to address your child’s violent behavior?
he did not
U are one of black ppls problems
@@nicolcaceres What are you saying? That the dummy didn't punch the officer in the eye with a closed fist like we all saw on the video?
There was no punch!! once again a racist society just making stuff up. The first comment is the greatest example of I’m YT and I say so.. But this is no surprise. This is the same country that allowed Emmett till 13 yrs old his killers charged .
This is the same country that executed the youngest child in America, 14 yr black boy named Darrell Stingley. Who was later found innocent After his death a falsely accused of sexually assaulting a white girl an older white man did it .
YT supremacist have always looked at Black children as adults. This is a perpetual hatred. Some of these racists can’t even pinpoint where their hatred comes from .This is Wetiko
They’ll just flat out lie. It’s demonic.. nobody can convince me if this is a white kid simply selling roses. this would have even been an issue or some white girls selling Girl Scout cookies. … would the cops have asked the teenage girls for ID????? which is ridiculous because what 13-year-old has ID?? But as you see in the comments, it’s just Moore I’m YT and I say so…. the only person that’s going to change races, America is the judgment from God. by the look of things, the way this country is gone judgment is here. You can’t be this evil for over 400 years and think the man upstairs is not going to bring the recompense
I watched the whole video and didn't see that, but was it after they grabbed Jim aggressively for selling palmetto roses while they were assaulting him???
When they sell Girl Scout cookies do they have a license? This young man already had his mind made up…..he was angry when he saw them, his mouth was out of control and his behavior, he put up a defense mode……this is a sad case. One more thing her coworker hit her 🤦🏾♀️
This guy was extremely misleading on how events went down. He didn't mention that this kid was given verbal commands before the officers ever got out of the cruiser, he cursed and hurled racial epithets at the officers, he struck an officer in the eye with a closed fist, and fought with the other officer the entire time. This is bullshit race hustling nonsense. The kid wasn't innocently selling flowers either. His sales strategy was to stand in front of the exit door and block people from leaving the store until he was able to do a sales pitch. That is harassing people, not selling flowers. Foh
I hate trying to get into a store and I’m being blocked to listen to their sales pitch. I rarely carry cash. Walmart didn’t want them there especially when they were blocking customers from entering and leaving the store. It’s very uncomfortable to many customers and me included. He is saying the kid was targeted when he wasn’t. Walmart called the police.
Why the mother was not allowed to speak
There're signs saying " No Loitering No Soliciting" on the building and in the parking lot,
Apparently, he is already of the belief that the signs don’t pertain to him and how dare anyone tell him that they do, in fact, apply to him and anyone else that doesn’t have permission from the store.
I’m sure that yet another person on here will complain about the girl scouts because they absolutely refuse to accept that the girl scouts obtain prior permission. They don’t just show up and set up a table. They have a chaperone and don’t block the door.
What about the Girl Scouts selling cookies? They are at every Walmart in the country.
@@TruthFairy106 In all fairness, he probably can't read. 😆
@@Truth-Matters-ck8pb I have hardly seen the Girl Scouts at Walmarts. They are there VERY occasionally, but the fact is they get permission to do so from Walmart. This thug was told to leave. He didn't, hence the cops. You're an ignoramus.
@@Truth-Matters-ck8pbWhat about them?!🤷🏻♀️ They do things the RIGHT way. They obtain permission from the business. They represent a REGISTERED service organization. They are NOT selling for PERSONAL ENRICHMENT. All proceeds go to the organization. They DO NOT block the door. They are ALWAYS accompanied by a RESPONSIBLE ADULT. If they were asked to leave, their CHAPERONE, who is supervising them would ensure that they left respectfully without throwing a tantrum, without spewing foul language and racial slurs.
The complete opposite behavior of the rose peddlers.
Find something productive to other than hate on girl scouts who have been a service organization for decades and actually follow the regulations.
Its unreal the cops doing this!!! Criminal charges for 13 yr old for selling roses.!!!!! Fire those two, no pensions.😡😡😡
So this young man has no father?
well that's a dumb question... everyone has a father... some just abandon their kids and society allows it!
You don’t know if his father is living or dead. Just stop the racist codes
@@beautifulyou2 Racist? What is racist?
That black men in huge numbers abandon their baby mamma's and children? Or is it racist to refer that behavior and its consequences for African American children?
He wasn’t at the “press conference”.
I don't see anything wrong with what happened with this video. There's no loitering at any Walmarts and the police officers were sent there for a reason. There was no bullying. No beating the young kid resisted and got arrested. By the way he was punching the other police officer so there's no money. No, sorry for this incident. Just a learning lesson 💯
Raise you kids better lady jessh, they are a reflection of you which is TOTAL SHET
Yes, kids are a reflection of their parents. The parents are responsible for their kid’s actions until they are adults.
No doubt this lady is going to have her hands very full for the next five years.
💯
Did walmart.complain to the police about the young kid if so they were wrong to call the police they should of delt.with the kid & just move him on in a nice manner the store is to blame ?
He was standing under a sign that said not to do what he was doing on private property. You can't explain or excuse his behavior or yours.
So what does a 13 year old know about law?
This was/is a teachable moment for the young man. Unfortunately, as usual, I see the mom, but the men that are around are most likely not the 13-year old's father. As a man & father, I taught my son entrepreneurship and to operate within the law. The absence of black fathers isn't the solution, it's the problem.
Smh how embarrassing to stand up there and act like he was compliant when addressed by the police
Extremely.
How embarrassing of you to think that their approach to a 13 yr old child was justified. Keep it classy. ❤
@@TheGeneralOfficial
That's how dumb they are.
The embarrassment is that the grownups didn't know how to properly address a child. Ugh.
You are wrong. 😑
Lucky police got to PUNK b4 citizens did real harm to noncompliance teen.
This is not going to go over well, we are living in the age of aquarius, from the lawyer to the parents to the child, all will be held accoutable in the court of public opinion. The BLM wave is over!! All thats left is the dry beach of accountability. If you want your kids to be entrepreneurs teach them how to do it the right way permits and all, but we all know his parent is too lazy for that.
This is probably going o go the same way as the officers who approached several men inside a shop after midnight well after closing time and the owner refusing to identify, then claimed ""racism"" ,,, got two officers fired for doing their job ,,, what do you want , for police to believe anyone and just walk away without verifying unusual activities ...
What a shame these people are just looking for a hand out.
I was thinking the same thing here we go trying to get rich of this. Instead teaching their son manners
@@marnat5961Most parents in this situation would be hanging their head in embarrassment of this kid’s behavior. Instead, the parent is holding a news conference and waiting for the ink to dry on their check.
They are not doing this kid a favor. He is headed full speed down the wrong path.
As always 😏
This is crazy the kid was breaking the law & Resisted arrest he should have left when he was asked...
You can't just set up shop directly in front of someone's business without permission yall tripping 🤦🏾♂️
This lawsuit should be thrown out of court the kid should have been arrested he had an attitude problem he fought with the cops he punched one in the face he knew what he was doing was wrong there is clearly signs all over Walmart that you can't be doing this he was breaking the law he was with someone who was already banned from being there in the first place selling those stupid flowers so no this is not a lawsuit this is a single mother who can't keep a baby daddy around trying to get a free payday this kid should have been arrested the cops did absolutely nothing wrong and this is all a bunch of crap and they're trying to cash out on a Payday and play the race card that's what this is!!! If anything they should be sued for false allegations against the police department!
Just another person looking for a reason to get a lawsuit. It's happening all over the U.S
My daughter was cussed out by Walmart for setting up her table thinking her supervisor had already secured permission as they had done on previous days. She definitely got run off.
Watch these lying actors do their thing! Pitiful the way things are twisted so that momma can get paid. Y’all getting too obvious.
I don't agree with you.
@@ClarityDetermination idgaf
I saw the video. Young man very hostile and antisocial in my opinion. He'll be an inmate before too long.
Family is jumping for joy they hit the ghetto lottery due to their lack of parenting smh
You have to be kidding me. The kid punched a female police officer and refused to cooperate. Junior needs to be in jail and the parents need to take a class on parenting. What joke this press conference is.
This type of disrespectful behavior must change they are only helping this kid's disobedience grow there are sometimes when officers are wrong but this is not one of those times he should have asked for permission and since he didn't have it he needed to respectfully move along & girl scouts always get permission 😮
yep the mom and the naacp are doing him no services with this dog and pony show
Just another shady family trying to get paid for nothing. It's what they're best at.
Get out of here! That kid needs to learn respect! Someone taught him to fight the police and be disrespectful and if he did it to them at 13.....just wait!
💯💯💯💯
The young man should know his manners! Let me guess,,,, ANOTHER LAW SUIT
Without a doubt, looking for a payday.
Maybe you need to teach your son not to sell roses outside of a store that is not supposed to be outside of without a license to sell the Roses sounds like it should have been done that way...if YOU would HAVE BEEN watching YOUR...13 THIRTEEN YEAR OLD SON....MAYBE HE WOULDN'T BE GETTING ARRESTED....WHEN YOU RESIST ARREST...THIS IS WHAT HAPPEBS...
You really mean disobedient black people.... Keep it real, Esau... All white/edomites feel the same. Esau/the white man, always oppressing the black man/Judah/the real WEJ. Christ is kcalb... Yup...
You only need a peddler license if you make a certain amount of money. I’ve seen kids selling candy bars outside of Walmart without permission or a business license. You don’t need peddlers license under a certain amount of money made. Do you watch your kids when they roam the neighborhood. Heck nah! So just stop it! He’s old enough to walk to the store. He’s old enough to stay home alone. So u make no sense!
Kids don’t know anything about getting a business license especially at that age. At least he’s not selling drugs. Leave the kid alone. Cops had a good opportunity to teach him about the law and obtaining a business license. They missed the mark and it shows bad behavior on the department.
He was not subdued when the officer pulled out the taser. Liar
Here’s an idea: Instead of this unnecessary escalation nonsense, why not teach kids TO OBEY THE LAW??? This business of making excuses for people who break the law is ridiculous!
Not only making an excuse, but not too embarrassed to make a tv appearance hoping for a check.
The place to speak up about the kids you claim to care about is in the communities where they are raised to be failures, by failures. Stop the victim crap. All the attorneys and media figures who get going every time police are involved, need to focus their money and energy on those failed parents and failed neighborhoods. The media needs to stop enabling this. Why give these people the microphone?
How backwards is America? A kid trying to make a dollar because he’s too young to hold a job and the cops do him like this. Really questioned him about a business license 🤦🏽♂️. Can you imagine all the six-year-olds the cops would have to arrest at lemonade stands 🤡
