🚨 DRIVING WHILE BLACK: Cop climbs into car and beats Black driver for asking to speak to a supervisor. Craig Manning says he was racially targeted during a traffic stop. He made a LEGAL left turn, got pulled over, and asked to speak to a supervisor before handing over... his license or exiting the vehicle. Dashcam footage shows an officer climbing into his car and punching him several times in the face and head. He was charged with traffic violations and resisting arrest. He’s now planning to sue Suffolk County Police and the officers. His attorneys say it was because he’s Black and note he had the camera installed out of fear of “driving while Black.” Another case of police using fists on a Black driver who simply wanted basic rights. How many more Black men have to get beaten on camera before these cops face real consequences?show more

He legally has to give is name, license and exit the car. That’s the law for everyone. Not just him. Those are all lawful orders he had no right to refuse.

So he refused to exit the vehicle and resisted arrest. Could’ve been avoided. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

@nasescobar316 When a cop does that he is no longer a cop he is a street thug n all respect is off blk ppl are sick of being dehumanized n in front of world 🌎 I hope he is fired and becomes security at Walmart piece of sh@t

Criminals with badges😒🖕🏾

Isn't this the kind of stuff they warn us would happen if we travel to other countries?

I see a driver refusing a lawful order, taunting a LEO, and then resisting. It’s the epitome of FAFO. If you think you have been stopped inappropriately, the courtroom, not the roadside is the place to make your case.

"I know my rights!!!" almost always ends in prison time. Easily avoided by complying with the police. Use of force was very much justified. His low IQ had everything to do with getting punched in the face. His race had nothing to do with it.

So he refused to follow lawful orders from the officer?

Racist fucks had no business in that mans car, let alone hitting him!

then why are you not showing the entire interaction?

How hard is it for these "people" to just comply with the cops and then take it to court if they violate the law? This is something every white 10 year old knows.

When will these dumbasses realize that arguing with cops on the side of the road DOES NOT WORK?!? Thats what courtrooms are for... Why do they feel like they dont have to follow societal norms and rules???

You’re legally obligated to present those documents when pulled over for a traffic violation. We all do lmao

This asshole cop should be fired and sued! This is why no one Trusts police!

Thin Blue goons ignore dash cam and brutalize compliant citizen…

The premise of Critical Race Theory validated once again. Systemic racism is deeply embedded in the institutions of the U.S., law enforcement in particular. Manning's rights were violated without a doubt. The police officer brought 250 years of racism to the scene, as usual.

Justified. 100% - follow lawful orders or get fucked up. And fuck whoever made this about race - blacks are just being treated equally for a change ya racist puss

If you don't do what cops say they will arrest you. You can beat the rap, but you can't beat the ride. You do not have the right to "talk to a supervisor."

Nice way to wsit out all the context that shows why. You made it look like the cop immediately just opened the door and started punching before anything was said or done. This a classic case "I didn't dun nuffin"

He doesn't have a "right" to decline lawful orders, but browns aren't really capable of understanding anything, so this happens on the regular.

Listen fucc the police. That's first and foremost. But you can't fight the law without knowing the law. Translation: if a cop tells you to get out of the vehicle you HAVE to get out of the vehicle. It's called Pennsylvania V. Mims. You have to know your rights before you can flex

Another man in authority who forgot the law & how to control his emotions really wants now to be famous. Let’s make him famous!

Trumps America. Racism is encouraged

You don’t get to say the word supervisor and instantly get your way. These myths that people tell the black community have caused so much damage to their perception of what to expect in a police encounter.

He should have just handed over his ID. No sympathy.

@JaxHarley5

Follow orders. It’s really simple. Why do people like yourself only show certain parts of the video instead of showing the entire video? FAFO

The white folks are chimping out all over be safe

He got roughed up b/c he failed to comply with basic laws that apply to all of us. When you're told to hand over ID and exit the vehicle, you have to do those things, even if you're black.

Where do these morons get the idea that they get to ‘demand’ a supervisor before complying with a legal order to hand over their license and registration?

Suffolk County PD in NY was under years of federal oversight until last August. It's a problematic PD that seems to hire even more problematic officers, in particular, racists. They've cost taxpayers in Suffolk millions in discrimination lawsuits

He has no right to “speak to a supervisor.” Lawful arrest and use of force against a noncompliant person. FAFO.
