Mom's Viral Video Message: Respect the Police Video at the link.

 Moms Viral Video Mes…
"Respect the police: That’s a message from one mom in a video that’s gone viral on Facebook.

"In the video that’s been viewed more than 2 million times, Kisa Jackson said that parents need to take ownership of their children’s actions. She added that kids must follow protocol and respect officers.

"Jackson was responding to the recent video which shows then-police officer Eric Casebolt pin a teen girl to the ground and then draw his weapon at a pool party in Texas. Casebolt has since resigned.

“ 'Do I think that the incident was excessive? Yes. But do I think it was necessary? Yes. Parents need to take ownership [of] what their children are doing and hold them accountable for their actions, as well as the parents should be held accountable,” Jackson said in the video."

'Not All Officers Are Racist': Black Man's Defense of Police Goes Viral 
 Video, but it may not play,
"A 22-year-old African-American man recorded a video after a recent encounter with a police officer and the video has gone viral. But it's not for the reasons you might think.

"In the video, Will Stack, a 22-year-old U.S. Army National Guardsman, recounts his experience with a white police officer in South Carolina.

"Stack explains that he was pulled over for "improper use of the median." After handing over his license and registration and listening politely while the officer explained what he did wrong, Stack was given a warning and sent on his way.

"The positive encounter with a police officer inspired Stack to share his experience.

" 'People need to understand that not all officers are crooked," Stack says in the video. "Not all officers are racist, bad people. And not all people who get shot or tased or arrested by officers are innocent victims."

" 'Just because you're black doesn't mean you're a victim, just because you're white doesn't mean you're a racist, just because you're a cop doesn't mean you're a bad person," Stack added." . . .
