Not much shocks me. But, yeah, that was a really disturbing sight.
They said that it is a practice often used for anyone but there was no reason why they couldn't have waited for a pick up vehicle. Only someone of utter ignorance couldn't look at that and realise its connotations.

Take out the offender being black for a sec, this practice is actually entirely legal. That’s what shocks me. But the USA judiciary is full of such disproportionate custodial treatment e.g. everyone is made to look like a criminal before a judge regardless of whether it’s a parking fine or murder, children are shackled etc. In other words, had the offender been white then this might not have been challenged! It’s completely unacceptable by our standards either way but then we’ve always been more civilised than our colonial cousins.

I think you've just described America as a whole.

We talk about Islamic countries being thousands of years behind us, I think the USA is still a couple of hundred.

”The officers were taking Mr Neely to a police staging area. Police clarified that he was not tied with the rope, but "was handcuffed and a line was clipped to the handcuffs".
Oh, okay yeah, well that’s alright then, carry on!

And so easy to resolve. Plod on horses no longer carry rope.
All they had to do was call it in.
The cops must have been playing too much Red Dead Redemption.

The biggest surprise to me is that anyone is surprised this type of thing goes on. The guy in charge is a racist and so are a percentage of the people who vote for him 
Trumpo the Clown has about as much chance of making America great again as the Albion have of doing a league and FA Cup double.
