Michael Bennett: Police singled me out, put a gun near my head

Cops respond to a possible shooter. See man crouching behind a gaming machine amid chaos. Man sees them and runs. According to some, the cops are suppose to just let unidentified possible suspect run away from the scene. This day and age the cops have an impossible job. Perhaps they shouldn't have to serve and protect those that are so against them. That would be a good form of natural selection.

...and if the unidentified subject actually WAS a shooter, and then ran out and shot and killed another, the same people would criticize the cops for not taking decisive action to stop the threat.

But it is all very simple. The cops simply have to be correct, stop and detain the actual perps and no one else, 100% of the time. That isn't asking too much, is it?

'The call that night was a scary one'

Bennett's brother, Green Bay Packers tight end Martellus Bennett, signaled support for his sibling Wednesday in an Instagram post.

"The call that night was a scary one," Martellus Bennett wrote. "The emotion and the thought of almost losing you because of the way you look left me in one of the saddest places ever. I could hear the fear in your voice, the tears in your eyes as well your sprinting heart beat. I can't imagine how the people who lost their loved ones felt when they got the call."

Martellus Bennett added later: "To me, you're much more than a nigger," a direct reference to the line in his brother's open letter.

This is NOT a Black and White Issue.

This is a classic example of 'a Black Issue' and Racial Profiling that is all to common now for over a Decade and inappropriate Law Enforcement.

Also what was with the excessive brutality and the process of the arrest !? Bennett was down and cuffed. So why does the second Cop come in and put abuse on him?
