No doubt this fucking cop was hoping Blake would fight back or at least put up some form of resistance so he could get a cheap shot or ten in there.

Why was he resisting so much? There's so many things he could've dome differently. Just do what the cops says and stop standing around. He had to have already known pretty much anything done while black is asking for trouble.

It seems like he didn't even tell Blake that he is a cop? Seriously surprised that Blake didn't fight back. Random guy on the street attacks you... wtf was that cop thinking!?
The internal conversation with the NYPD? More like: "Well, this guy's famous so we can't just kill him or threaten his family to silence him. And he's famous for playing tennis, so we can't paint him as being some kind of thug like we could if he was a rapper or a basketball player. So I guess we'll have to do some faux happyface kumbaya bullshit, write him a check, and hope he goes away. Or we could stall it while our pet shills in the local media try to dig up some dirt to ruin him with."
paid vacation.
I mean just think, he could've fought back, as anyone would have been well within their rights to do. That woulda escalated, and boom..

Maybe if I turn myself in once a day to see if I fit any descriptions I will be immune to being mistaken for a criminal. "Is that our guy?" - "No! That's our buddy Ploid." "How are you doing today Ploid?" That's sound annoying to do though, I'll take the chance.
Wow I probably would have ran away, the guy looks like a thug not a cop. Who knows, maybe he even had a knife. Why didn't he run? Did the gangster identify himself as a cop as he ran towards him? Were his mob buddies out of the frame pointing guns at him?

You Serious?
Joke post?
In any case, this thing will just keep happening until someone with some power has the balls to properly punish cops that continue to keep fucking up. Until then, it seems like they always have a get out of free jail card.

Let's see what happens to the officer who already has multiple complaints and lawsuits while only being on the job for 4 years. Let's see.

Honestly at some level it's this guy's fault. He should have known that dressing and standing like that was going to get him in some trouble. This has nothing to do with racism, it's just well...if you dress a certain way then you're going to be tackled sometimes. I'm not saying racism doesn't exist but it's not really that big of a deal now. Black people are fine as long as they don't do anything or dress in a way that brings suspicion upon themselves. I've seen black people who stand against the wall like that and they're up to no go, starting to make trouble in the neighborhoods, always getting into little fights. I'm sure you guys will quote me and call me a racist for saying but really you're the real racists for seeing this as racist. If you people stopped attacking me for misunderstanding my post instead of reading it, ugh you know what screw it I'm out, it's clear you don't want to debate this like rational adults but instead are just fanning a race war with your woah is me attitudes. MLK wouldn't want this and would be ashamed, how about protesting instead of rioting and destroying your own communities? Just when you do it don't inconvenience others because you turn away those who might have eventually one day maybe been down for the cause as long as the right conditions were met. Oh look a mod, now I'm going to get banned for triggering the sheltered crowd. Ugh this victim culture is killing America. That's why I like trump he tells it like it is.
A seemingly black guy walks out of the building, looks at what is going on, and walks back in hahh
Really?
Oh man, that's so sad
I think he deserves a 6th chance.

His brother and his sister probably won't speak to him after this arrest, but I don't blame them.
As a black man I would do the same thing. Might try to snap a quick picture, but I would not hang around. Another cop could see you and think, "nigger number 2 is trying to help his buddy," and rush you. It has happened to be before.Really?
Oh man, that's so sad
