Luis Rodriguez, 44, was not only not resisting, he was not even moving during the duration of the video.

“He was not involved in the disturbance. However, when police came, they focused their attention on Luis. Taking him face down onto the pavement, pepper-spraying his mouth, nose and eyes and putting the weight of five grown men on top of him, and then handcuffing him as he was unconscious or already dead,”

Very common occurrence in Mexico​

Spanish "mordida" literally translates as "bite", but in Mexican slang it means a bribe paid to the traffic police, or a public official​

​

"Como podemos resolver esto?" ( How can we resolve this?) Which will usually result in a price being mentioned. You are expected to haggle about the amount of a mordida, If you are obviously not a Mexican, and not good at negotiating you will be expected to pay a higher gringo rate.​

In Little Canada, Minnesota, Andrew Henderson, who has made a hobby out of videotaping law enforcement in public places, was charged with interfering with sheriff’s deputies and an ambulance crew when he filmed them. Yesterday, a jury needed less than an hour and a half to acquit Henderson

The prosecution claimed that Henderson was within a few feet of the paramedics (but not physically interfering with them), while Beck testified that he was approximately 35 feet away, quietly filming. That disagreement would have been resolved by the video itself, except that the sheriff’s deputies seized Henderson’s video camera, and the tape that it contained mysteriously disappeared.

As stupid as the actions of the police were in charging this guy, I'm more offended by the decision of the prosecutor in this case to actually take this case to court.

Citizen - you don't seem to understand. You are talking to police officers. You don't HAVE any rights.

Train up the cops like warriors. That'll teach those "citizens" for thinking they have rights.

New video shows police offered no medical help to unresponsive Staten Island resident Eric Garner as he lay dying, cop who used chokehold is stripped of shield, gun

"At one point, another officer is seen taking a cell phone and a pack of cigarettes from the 43-year-old Garner’s pants."

So why did the police swarm Garner in the first??

"Cops were investigating whether Garner was illegally selling “loosies” — untaxed single cigarettes."
