What a surprise, another young black man having a negative run in with the police. In a recent video a young man by the name of Robert Branch can be seen being choked by a man who describes himself as a police officer. Click more to check the video!
Unfortunately, we are living in a society where we are constantly questioning the practice of police. Not an isolated incident, but something that has seemed to sweep the nation with it being exposed to the public more and more. Robert Branch is the name of another young man we will add to the list of brutal attacks by police officers.
In a recent video, Branch is described to have been driving on a state highway on his way to work where he passed a Ford Fusion who began to tailgate him and attempt to run him off the road. According to Branch, once he parked his car, the driver of the Ford hopped out of the car and approached him at this point he began to record the incident.
The Altercation…
It is sickening to watch these videos countless times especially when those “in power” rarely give explanations for their actions. What is even more sickening about the video is the fact that the officer had a smile on his face right before assaulting branch and putting him in a choke hold. Ironically though, the unnamed “officer” can be heard telling someone to call the police.
Strange though because I would think he would have some type of equipment in his car to call for back up since he was pursuing someone? With more of these types of videos surfacing, lets hope that more police will be held accountable for the actions they take.
