New York Police Handcuffed And Beat Latino Man for ‘Asking a Question’ – Video

Welcome to the world of ‘stop and frisk,’ where you have absolutely no rights if you look a certain way… more specifically, if you are a certain color.

A New York man found this stop and frisk world extremely painful as he was stopped by police, frisked. And when he had the audacity to ask why he was being searched – the nerve if this man to think he had protection under the Fourth Amendment of the Constitution from unnecessary search and seizure – he was handcuffed, arrested and beaten.

Two videos actually exist of the beating of Santiago Hernandez: One from a security camera, and the other from a mobile phone. Taken together, the two corroborate Hernandez’s claim that he was kicked, beaten with night sticks, and pepper sprayed. But Hernandez says even before that, he was confused by why he was stopped for a search, and why exactly that search led to his arrest.

“She just was telling me to put my hands behind my back, but ‘I’m like trying to understand what are you are arresting me for. Can you please tell me?’” he recounted to ABC7.

“I’m a person to ask questions. If I didn’t do nothing wrong, I’m trying to understand the reason, what they are thinking of me, or what was the reason at all to arrest me,” he added.

The charges against Hernandez were eventually dropped and an investigation is being conducted… by the NYPD. #Eyeroll

I'm just tired of the lies and nonsense coming from the GOP, so this is my little contribution to combat the nonsense!
