1 Marine takes on 30 Cops. This is what is wrong in America!

“There is no honor in this. Why are you hurting innocent people! These are Americans, how do you sleep at night! I won’t let you hurt these people! If you want to be tough and kill unarmed people go to war in Iraq! What is wrong with you, you are sworn to protect us not kill us!”

  1. This video actually shows what is RIGHT with America! In this video you see a black man and Marine Corp war veteran expressing his views at a protest by shouting at police officers. As long as he wasn’t violent, the officers let him rant and he moved on.

    “A big man yells at cops while they do crowd control” would’ve been a better title for this.

        1. here, Scott. I mean that in all sincerity.

          Personally, I found it pretty moving that a man who has put his life on the line for this country stood up to police for their actions earlier in the month, when they took to indiscriminately swinging batons at protesters.

          You might note that he comes from a long line of family that has fought for the rights of others; kind of sad that he felt he had to fight for his own fellow citizens here to protect them from abuse.

          That’s what I took away from this video.

          Thomas comes from a long line of people who sacrifice for their country: Mother, Army Veteran (Iraq), Step father, Army, active duty (Afghanistan), Grand father, Air Force veteran (Vietnam), Great Grand Father Navy veteran (World War II).

          1. The video doesn’t show what is wrong with America. It shows one of the great things about our country. How many places in this world can you berate cops in a potentially volatile situation like that and just walk away?

            I also don’t see how accusing cops of killing innocent people is an inspiring thing.

            I don’t think what Thomas did was wrong, I just don’t see it as inspiring.

            1. And the size (and words) of the Marine Sgt…. Semper Fi! Sgt Thomas, Semper Fi!

              But we have seen cops treat Americans poorly for a long time now during the Occupy protest.  

              My point of what was wrong was what Sgt Thomas was saying, “There is no honor in harmng unarmed Americans”.  Tht is what is wrong in America.
