Yeah, I'd be pissed too.

But then I'm white so that won't happen to me.

How you took an article about how a man was treated just because he was black and made into all officers are racist is beyond me.  But then you have to attack me because I won't follow your orders I guess.  Maybe you're just having a bad day?

The guy should be mad at the other guy that was a criminal. The police never touched him. Held him for long enough to verify he was not the suspect and everyone went about their day. I understand his concern, but it's focused in the wrong direction. HE was the one convinced he was going to die because HE was not going to let police do their job. 

Turns out, there was no need for concern and he was able to go about the rest of his day. He assumed the worst and had zero respect for how the situation unfolded, even stating he wanted to go back and spit in their face because they didn't just take his word for it. More than likely, this situation is only going to harden him more against police and if he's ever detained again, the outcome may be totally different and it may be totally on him because of it.
