TYT: Retired Cops Play F-ed Up Song Mocking Michael Brown During Holiday Party



"A song poking fun at the killing of black teenager Michael Brown by a white policeman, performed at a retired officer's party, has prompted the Los Angeles Police Department to launch an internal investigation, its chief said on Tuesday.

"Michael Brown learned a lesson about a messin' with a badass policeman," goes the song, captured on video and posted on entertainment news website TMZ. It continues: "Michael looked like some old Swiss cheese" ... his brain "splattered on the floor."

The video is likely to fuel public anger over police killings of black men. About 200 people marched in New York on Tuesday, defying Mayor Bill de Blasio's call for protests to be suspended after two police officers were killed in their patrol car on Saturday in an apparent revenge attack.”

This video must go viral. It must reach mostly white people in denial about American racism. It may not convince many, but if it influences some to see reality, it will be worthwhile.

They don't give a shit at all about what public opinion is on their roll in the death of this particular citizen.

All I can say is that these jerks at this retirement must think a good salute is one that protects thuggery. What they saluting, though? That this mentality or the ability to question authority is beyond those who they pledge to protect and defend?

What few brain cells it takes to salute, then. What a bunch of fucking, out-of-control morons.

Makes me want to spit up seeing this trash heap group of pigs.
