Whats funny is most of Dekalbs residents are black and most of the police officers are black, most of the county commissioners are black.

Playing race card = fail.

So....if you match the description of a robbery suspect and the police question you about it...it violates your rights? cool. If people want to complain that black people are always being hassled by the cops then fine, but the high rate of black on black crime doesn't help anyone's case. If the suspect was described as a white male, then why would they waste their time on 4 black people? it's 2011, new age, you got to get out of your 1950's way of thinking bro.

@SoulFlower69 No, the question DOES involve them being detained, thats the whole point of this video. "They're black, so the Police just stopped them for no reason" If you know ANYTHING about DeKalb Police, which you probably dont, they care more about writing citations to get revenue for the County, than wasting time on people who've done nothing, especially when those people are the SAME color as all but one of them

@JOHNFLOCKSON question doesnt involve being detained, no one fled the scene when stopped, nor does it mean you being photographed innocently. black on black had nothing to do with these young men being stopped on BS-cleared-cuffs come off-PHOTO'd-put bk in police car-released-then driver license being confiscated to see if guilty of any crime-to be mailed-for real??? Thats cool with you. The 1950's is HERE still to black people...u cant relate, admit it.

wow, they took pics of these young men PRIOR to their being officially arrested for any crime. For what I ask? It doesnt matter the race of the officers doing the work here, the one ones on the SIDELINE waving to the camera, kneeling & posing made the directives. This is sad on many levels b/c if these had been 5 young white emory students that possibly FIT a description of a crime, their PICS would not have been taken.

@2204Alpha You have uncle toms running the damn county and I'm black.

[kdbest0721]

Dekalb county should be finding some type of program to put these black men in because alot of them cannot get jobs because on a felony being on their record. Now you know why Dekalb have a big jail next to the expressway.

[kdbest0721]

Dekalb use their own black police officers to arrest more blacks. This is nothing but slavery but the white man is not doing it to us he using blacks in law enforcement. More black police officers don't even like their jobs they just do it for the money.. They don't give a damn about helping blacks better themselves.

The department is run by blacks,this is standard procedure for a bolo.

@2204Alpha Actually this does nothing but reinforce the race issue. The issue is the police are corrupted at the foundation.
