Police officers 'dehumanize' college student in severe beating

When police officers feel their authority and power slipping away, what do they do? They do what it takes to win - tazer, beat with hands or batons, handcuff and beat some more. That's the American way ;)

In the following article, a college student treated as such calls this nbsp;behavior dehuminization. He says the officers treated him like an animal, not giving him the decency he deserves just for being a member of mankind.

This is an interesting question. that deserves being asked in our current society still suffering from Bush-era loss of civil liberties to further increase the perception of safety secured.

People should always be treated as people. Those in law enforcement or any public service employee should repeat that 20 times a day.

See the story at the link below.
