Crossing the street (in a police state)...
Cop Chokes Then Bashes In Man’s Face — For JaywalkingDel Paso Heights, CA — Walking across the street in a manner not fit for the police state can often end in serious injury or death — not necessarily because of a car running you over either. The enforcement of jaywalking laws in this country have gone to the extreme and a new video out of California shows just how extreme.
According to witnesses, and backed up by video, Nandi Cain Jr. was crossing the street when a Sacramento police officer approached him. As seen in the video, the pair exchanged some words just before the officer charged Cain and began choking him.
Cain never swung at the officer and it appears that he was merely defending himself from the officer’s onslaught. For a brief moment, the camera pans away as the people filming pull over. When it turns back to Cain, we see the officer waylaying the young man.
Naomi Montaie was the one who filmed the abuse and said she posted it to Facebook because she felt everything she saw was wrong.
“I never witnessed anything like that. He just kept hitting him and kept hitting him, and I was like ‘oh my God…why you hitting him like that? ..............
