They did that with the Rodney King case as well. They made him out to be a Saint and only showed the part of the video where he gets his ass beat over and over by the cops, not the part where he kept charging them even after he was tased twice and not the part where he pulled his pants down and told them to kiss his ass.

And in the Rodney King case, the MSM reported that he was a “motorist” beaten by cops. The clear implication was that he was pulled over for something minor such as a speeding ticket.

In fact, he was leading police on a high speed chase of over 100 mph. He was fleeing a crime scene, a crime in which he was the prime suspect, which is why the cops were chasing him. He was no random black “motorist” beaten up by cops.

And, the complete video showed the cops trying to subdue him with less forceful methods. The beating with nightsticks we all saw was the last resort, the final method used to subdue an uncooperative suspect who was resisting arrest.
