Another camera saves another cop: This time in Texas, from a black state legislator who in a public hearing accused a cop of racism.
“Last month, Garnet Coleman held a hearing to talk about the controversial arrest of Sandra Bland, the Chicago woman who was arrested and later found dead in a county jail,” said the anchor for KHOU news in Houston. “Coleman said he had also been mistreated during a traffic stop in Austin county.”
To the list of Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Freddie Gray, Sam Dubose and the millions of other martyrs to white crime and violence, Garnet Coleman wants to add one more name: His.
“He talked to me a like a child,” Coleman said during the hearing. “He was so rude and nasty. When he found out I was a legislator he became more rude and nasty. What I’m saying is that he treated me like a boy. I want to be very clear about it.”
This is familiar territory for Coleman, who gets lots of awards for accusing lots of people of racism.
But the cop’s dash camera recorded a different story. One that must interrupt, however briefly, Coleman’s installation in the Black Victims Hall of Fame.

It's so sad that Garnet Coleman and his ilk weren't told the story of 'the boy who cried wolf' back in their childhood.
