Update: In a related piece this weekend in The Guardian, see Black activist jailed for his Facebook posts speaks out about secret FBI surveillance. The man, Rakem Balogun of Texas, spoke out against police brutality and violence and because of his published stands was arrested, amid increasing surveillance and police harassment nationwide.

The first thing readers should know about the white cop caught on video beating a black teen in Wisconsin this weekend is the cop will be cleared of wrongdoing. No criminal charges, and no loss of pay and benefits for the cop will result from an internal police investigation.

Bank on it.

In Wisconsin, cops beating, killing, harassing, fining and terrorizing the population, especially black and brown folks, is widely regarded as a social good in itself. If cops can begin the process of imprisoning a minority ... or killing a minority, so much the better.

The location of this latest cop attack is Wauwatosa, Wisconsin, next to Milwaukee.

Slate Magazine and WISN-TV, (Milwaukee) have the story. Civil rights groups protested the police beating this weekend.

Cops of course did not arrest the other cop for repeatedly beating this 17-year-old. Rather, the cops cited the victim with disorderly conduct, battery and resisting an officer.

Testilying, cooking police reports and engaging in character assassination against the community seem pointless when the court system is rigged against people, in favor of perps in military-black-and-blue.

The video below, WISN-TV, raises numerous questions. Did it occur to the cop that being well-planted and balanced and then throwing a power punch to an unguarded teen's face could result in permanent damage? Perhaps permanent damage is the objective.

After-all the kid is black, hence worthy of beating, harassment, imprisonment; there is no apparent bottom to the crimes cops will inflict for any or no reason.

Watch how this story unfolds—Wisconsin white cop beats unarmed black teen—and witness the predictable police cover-up, the character assassination of this young man, and raw displays of racism in comments from white Wisconsin. It's SOP, and it's getting worse as Trump cheers on police beatings.

From Slate Magazine and the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: Wauwatosa Police Chief Barry Weber said in a statement. "We thoroughly review all incidents in which force is used by an officer and will do so in this incident, as well."

Bull-shit.
