Horrifying Video Shows Traffic Stop of Black Army Lieutenant

A black Army Lieutenant was pulled over for a simple traffic violation involving his license plates and never showed any threatening behavior of any kind. And yet, cops approached his car with guns drawn, and screaming. When he said he was afraid to leave his car for fear of his life, he was pepper sprayed and knocked to the ground.

The police originally pulled him over for no license plates even though his new car dealer plate was visible in his rear window. The Lieutenant chose not to pull over in a dark isolated area, and continued driving until he was in a lighted and public space.

Guess not everyone supports the troops.
