Diabetic-man-is-beaten-by-police-during-traffic-stop

I had all kinds of things I was going to write about today, then someone sent me this clip on Facebook.  This man was in a diabetic emergency and then had trouble driving.  The officers jumped to conclusions, and 5 or 6 of them proceeded to beat him, even as he could not fight back because he was unconscious. 

No one should be treated this way, no matter what their illness.  Someone could get stung by a bee, and end up passing out from anaphylaxis.  Someone could have an epileptic seizure and pass out.  All of these people could be victims of overzealous police officers. 

Not just that, but if he was drunk, what gives them the right to beat the crap out of him?  No one should be treated like that when they have not been aggressive towards the police. 

I want to create a sticker for the car that says "Diabetic on board" with the medic alert sign.
