UPPER MARLBORO, Md. (AP) -- A Maryland man who says security guards beat him at a Six Flags America park on Father's Day in 2018 was awarded $800,000 by a jury on Friday.

Nicholaus Mims and his family were visiting a water park area at Six Flags America in Bowie when the father took off his shirt and noticed one of his children was missing, The Daily Record reported , citing the complaint filed last year in Prince George's County Circuit Court. He found his son, but security guards told him he needed to put on a shirt.

The shirtless guy was black. Refused to put his shirt on but offers to leave the park and was just suddenly beaten up for no reason. I call BS

Was Joe Biden one of the pool security guards?

Did he have a link of chain?

The article fastidiously points out that he is black, but fails to point out that the guards manhandling him are blacker.

Can’t tell whether or not he had “man boobs” or a beer gut or both.

Yahoo “News” is highly biased and nortorious for omitting salient facts that don’t fit the liberal agenda.

I’m sure he immediately complied, apologized and thanked the officers for their concern

Seems like 40% of the story is missing. What did he say or do to these officers. Something happened in between No Shirt and TKO. It’s as though the article is based on info gathered from one person or one camera.

He wanted to sue for $10 Million.
Even still, he was awarded $800K in a little more than one calendar year. Did Black Lives Matter threaten a riot?

Nell Irvin Painter will probably offer some commentary about that photo.

What’s missing is any real justice in the state of Maryland. Actually this is situation normal there.

“when the father took off his shirt and noticed one of his children was missing”

How many children did he find under his shirt?

There is more to the story than the story indicates. Sounds like overly zealous security guards at an amusement park.

But a gay cop that has his precious little feelings hurt gets $20,000,000

I don’t believe him. If he cannot follow simple rules like wearing a shirt, I am not believing him.
