    If you catch the whole video the police first harass the kids, then demanded to see their ID knowing full well children don't have IDs then threated to arrest the kid for not having an ID then the police officers assaulted the kid. The kid tried to defend himself, then the second officer jumped on the kid and shoved him to the ground. Then when the second officer said how old is he, and the 1st officer said 13 then they knew thet screwed up so they sat around trying to figure some excuse out to justify their assault on him.
    They tried to claim he was blocking the door so people couldn't get in or out, but you cam clearly see a half dozen people going in an out with no problems.

      they said they just wanted to talk to him meanwhile the male officer grabs him and starts assaulting him for...not talking to him in the way that he wanted. force must be proportional to the crime, and not talking to cops how they want you to is not a crime unless you're making criminal threats. meaning, the force used was excessive from the moment the male officer started the assault making him the criminal and opening up the 13 year old to legal self-defense in the states that have sensible laws around this (S.C. isn't one of them unfortunately). lemme know how you feel the next time you see cops walk up to a 13 year old white girls lemonade stand or girl-scout stand if one of the girls says something considered rude and the cop assaults her. lemme guess, you don't think 13 year old white girls can be rude or something? get the fuck outta here.
