Meek Mill Posts Police Brutality Video To Instagram

Meek Mill is usually shot down when he speaks out on issues on social media, but for once, his claims may be warranted.

Every day, men and women are subjected to harsh treatment by police in America, and Meek Mill is fed up with it. He took to Instagram to post a video that shows a man running with police close behind him. Once the officers close in on the man – identified later as Stanislav Petrov – he is tackled to the ground and appears to be hit repeatedly with a nightstick. Petrov tries to get up several times – with his hands behind his head to signal defeat – but is unable to do so under the barrage of hits.

Meek posted the video to Instagram with a caption reading, “These are the people that make up the charges that the people have to face in court for our freedom! I can almost guarantee he got 30 charges because they have to make up a reason why they beat him so bad! This is the biggest game of them all #thesystem”

Meek Mill has also accused the cops of police brutality, taking to Instagram earlier this year to share his own story.

Lips swollen …. Stitches in both swollen eyes! One of my braids ripped out! I weighed about 130 at the time And I was found guilty of assaulting cops! It’s clear 2 see I was punched and stomped by a few cops! If I wasn’t blessed the way I am I still would have hatred in my heart towards cops but I forgave bcuz I know all cops ain’t the same! 2 “black cops” got on the stand and lied and cried about how I chased them down with a gun and tried to kill them! I caught that case at 18 and was stripped of my freedom and taken away from my family 4 times for the same case and still on probation.. 1 step away from jail if I make one mistake! I can’t blame my judge because the law labels cops as “expert witnesses” and it was cops against a black kid and she’s suppose to believe a cops testimony first!! I never got a chance to speak to my judge about this from young man to woman and I hope she sees this to help other young men that won’t b able to make it thru what I made it thru! After I caught the case I had no choice to hustle in the streets to get a good lawyer aka a good liar to help me get my freedom!
