Corporal Eric Casebolt became the latest victim of police brutality—the kind the targets the police. Casebolt was an officer responding to a melee in a suburb about 100 miles northeast of Dallas, Texas, in a town called McKinney. The semi-affluent neighborhood was having a pool party. Residents could invite two guests. The mix of attendees was diverse. But soon enough, news of the party went out on Twitter (no, I do not have an account) and the place was ransacked by people (of all races) that did not belong there. Faced with a mob crowd, the HOA and residents called the police to restore order back to their neighborhood. Enter Corporal Casebolt.

He is widely seen on a You Tube video forcing a black, female, bikini-clad teenager’s face into the grass. He is seen moving quickly from individual to individual loudly ordering them to get down on the ground—to comply. Many, this teenaged female included refused. In the video older youths can be seen actually encouraging people to defy the police orders. In one instant, while trying to force the female to comply, two grown youths are seen approaching the officer from what would have been his blind side. One of them seems to jump from one spot to another closer to Casebolt in what looked to be a taunting, challenging stance. Casebolt seeing this in his peripheral vision rose, and drew his sidearm. As soon as he sprang up the two immediately fled. (At least one of them was apprehended and charged.)

The community, fed by an all-too-willing media has gone into a viral reaction demanding the officer’s job. He complied, resigning after about ten years on the force and following years in the military police. He is accepting blame and expresses regret for allowing the moment to control his actions.

In my opinion, he is apologizing for having the natural instincts to defend himself. Had he ignored the two grown “attackers” would they simply have stopped taunting him? Do you think they would have left him to continue to subdue the female? Do you suppose they would have seen the futility of their interference and maybe decided to go to a bible study? Or would they maybe have taken other steps to goad him into the response they sought?

So… are there bad cops who go too far? Absolutely. Was Casebolt one of them? I think not. I do not believe he got up that morning scheming of ways to violate some spoiled bitch’s civil rights. He reacted as he was trained in a fight or flight scenario.

Now, did the agitators know what they were doing? Absolutely. Did they see a chance to “get on TV” and “piss off a cop”? You bet. Did they really have the stones to stand up to the police? Nope. You see that as they scamper away like the pussies they really are. They are just typical thugs who “bow up” against authority until authority turns its full attention to them. These are the same people who complain against the heavy-handed tactics of the police whenever police force them to do something they don’t want to do.

Do they know what they are doing? Absolutely. They see ALL police as the enemy, as though ALL police are trying to keep them down–through force preferably. They speak out against the police force as not reflecting the diversity of the community while black cops get killed in New York City or Chicago. The Police Commissioner in New York just spoke out that he is ham-strung trying to hire black men to be police officers as so many of them have criminal records. No just a misdemeanor offense, but felony arrests with jail time served. These “candidates” are automatically disqualified. And rightfully so. Who wants a cop on the force who used to sell drugs, or killed his neighbor in a fit of jealousy? The other lesson here? Just make enough noise, scream about discrimination and it won’t matter if you were wrong, the public will side against the cop. He’ll be made to be a villain and you’ll be sainted.

These people will tell you it is the overt racism of the police that targeted these men in their youth and deliberately had them arrested—framing them if necessary—in order to lock them up to control them. The police are targeting them. Those complaining seem to crave the anarchy that would follow if the police simply said “Screw it” and stopped responding to calls in their neighborhoods. Let them police themselves, maybe. We can’t be too far from that anymore.

This is what happens when a culture, willingly separate from the traditions of this country only thirty years ago, hampered by broken families with single parent leadership, idolizing such criminals a Tupac, Snoop Dog, Pe-Diddy, Suge—with the gun toting, drug selling (and using), women dominating lifestyle they promote, takes control. Anything goes. Do anything you want. Punish those who disrespect you. Take anything you want by force. You are OWED it. Disrespect anyone who tries to tell you what to do. You want to rape that woman? Go ahead. She wants it anyway, right? Especially if she is white. Add to that a media empire that shills for the grievance and victim industry and you have all the ingredients you need for a disaster cake.

And these are the same people that will be begging for police protection in a few months when the residents already living among them, encouraged by the lack of anyone strong enough to tell them “no” step up and take the reins. They’ll be blaming the white cops for deliberately staying out of black communities, forcing them to fend for themselves.

These are tough times to be a cop. I wouldn’t want to do it.
