And all the while they are enabled by others who look on and do nothing. Memphis station WMC-TV has the video. You must watch it.</p><blockquote>The video, recorded February 12th, shows Duanna Johnson in the booking area at the Shelby County Criminal Justice Center after an arrest for prostitution. The tape clearly shows a Memphis police officer walk over to Johnson - a transsexual - and hit her in the face several times.</blockquote><blockquote>"Actually he was trying to get me to come over to where he was, and I responded by telling him that wasn't my name - that my mother didn't name me a 'faggot' or a 'he-she,' so he got upset and approached me. And that's when it started," Johnson said.</blockquote><blockquote>Johnson said the officer was attempting to call her over to be fingerprinted. She said she chose not respond to the derogatory name the officer called her.</blockquote><blockquote>"He said, 'I'm telling you, I'm giving you one more chance to get up.' So I'm looking at him, and he started putting his gloves on, and seen him take out a pair of handcuffs," Johnson said.</blockquote> </div> <div> <a title="more"></a></div></p> </div> <a href="/blog/42350-memphis-cops-caught-on-tape-beating-transsexual-prisoner">Continue reading</a> Why Drag My Sister into This? http://bravenewfilms.org/blog/42058-why-drag-my-sister-into-this 2008-10-08T02:50:51Z Breakthrough <object width="375" height="308"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/w9LfGqG_U1c&border=0&rel=0"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/w9LfGqG_U1c&border=0&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="375" height="308"></embed></object> <a href="/blog/42058-why-drag-my-sister-into-this"><img src="http://bravenewfilms.org/pictures/medium/47460" width="140" height="105" border="0" align="left" style="border: solid 1px black;" /></a> <div class="post_content"> <p>A man who's trying to have a quiet meal is jostled.
