Even if you assume the call to the police was justified and it looked like a riot was going to happen before the videos started rolling, what happened later clearly was not right.

* These were kids in bathing suits. Kind of hard to hide a weapon that might threaten the life of an officer.
* They weren’t concerned with the young girl in the bikini that was later arrested at first. It wasn’t until she started to say something to them. Assuming she was mouthing off to them horrible things, that response is hardly appropriate.
* The white kid filming was left alone, even talked to politely
* Pretty obvious only the black kids were being singled out and targeted.
* I’m not sure what the big deal would be if a bunch of them ran off. Why chase them? If they were looking to disperse a crowd — mission accomplished. They were running off.
