Officers in Galveston, Texas, can be heard discussing how the public will view the scene as they tie a rope to the hands of the black suspect and march him through the city.

Same – different year- Same treatment. 13th Amendment.
Horrible Fire Them and put them in jail period Criminals with a Badge.
Haha! Only in Texas. Got to love it.
This reminds of the dark history of slavery in USA. The officers must be grugged the same way across the town.
1:05 Gonna Drag Him, Anyone Remember Seeing This In
ROOTS?
IDC what you say the police officers new exactly what they were doing 🤷ðŸÂ½â€ÂÂ♂ï¸ÂÂ
They didn't call for a car because they WANTED to humiliate this man and didn't care at all for his well being. Both cops should be stripped, whipped and mock hung in the city square. Then fired never to work in law enforcement again. My votes go to them for the dumbest cops of the year.
If they were sooooooo worried about how the hell it looked shows they knew how it looked! If they were concerned about how they looked doing what they did then guess what, wait for a patrol car or bitch get the hell off your horse and walk with him. One of y’all get the hell down off your high horse and walk with him as the other leads your horse. No control lost over the man of the horse and looks better to citizens that pay your salary and whom y’all work for. WTF! No compassion whatsoever ever! I’m sorry but if I was an officer, I already knew how it would look and if just wait for back up with a car. Worst case if I must arrest him, if it’s a short walk then if ask my partner to take da lead of my horse while I walk the man in ahead of them hopefully a car will come on the way. There’s options but cops don’t choose to use them.
Bruh everyone makes everything into a race thing
Untrained officers Are making our nation horrible daily! How is this not in the news everyday. Why? because FAKE NEWS is more important. What a shameful news and police industry we have going in our nation. Shame on you all!
Keep up or I'm gonna drag you..bet she would have too.
maybe they did call for a squad car but it was taking to long so they at least got him as far as they could by the means they had with them im not racist or anything but they shouldn't be punished. I could understand if this was a repeat thing but it probably wasn't and they will probably learn from it. Its not anything to suspend or arrest them for by any means(i will not be responding or even looking at comments so dont even bother)
Was there an alternative, such as calling in back up, via vehicle?
Yes, it was a bad call. But I fail to see how it is “racially disturbingâ€ÂÂ. They had a lawful reason to take him into custody. Didn’t matter if he was white or black…
Whoa the cops are bringing slavery back?
I'm white and have been perp walked several times to arrest processing
Not cool
Both officers (and I use that term loosely) are disgusting human beings.
Pigs in blankets fry em like bacon
Kkk 👮 strikes again
Cops that are racist?!?! Noooooo…
Not 1 but 2 cop brains decided that this was the best option. My conclusion is that these officers lack the necessary decision making abilities to continue to be cops.
Just because this is how it was done in slave days. They also branded coloured folks, these 2 idiots may think that’s ok? Maybe shoot the ground at his feet to make him move faster? Surprised they didn’t save time, and just throw the rope loop over a branch and hang the poor gentleman?
I swear the horses were smarter than the cops.
I thought it was a modern version of ‘ROOTS’? Slave catchers caught a runaway.
Many find offensive? Many? How about EVERYBODY! Nobody can see that and not know it is WRONG.
Never mind offensive, what if the man fell? Chokeholds are supposedly banned but putting a noose around a man’s neck is ok? While being dragged by a horse?
And they were laughing about it. Knowing it was wrong and yet still doing it.
Um gee, why don’t people respect the police?
And what? Is it degrading..Yes …So is sitting in the back of a cop car…
