Tommy Yancy, veteran of the Afghan and Iraq wars and father of two, was beaten to death by CHP after they pulled him over for not having a front license plate in Imperial, CA, this past Sunday, Mother’s Day.
A witness to the event claimed he was not resisting arrest at all, but was first attacked by a police K-9, hit with a taser, and then beaten by five officers until he died.
Another witness said that Tommy Yancy was “mad” and “uncooperative” during the traffic stop, but that police went too far in their beating.
A close friend of Yancy described him as “shy, and a comedian” an “excellent dad, who kept in contact with his army buddies every week.” His sister-in-law, Jaqueline Hernandez, described him to as “a very loving guy, loved his kids to death… they were his everything. Very funny down to earth guy, and loved by all”.
I don’t care if this man was belligerent, you don’t kill people for belligerence or even for taking a swing at an officer, especially when there are 5 cops around who can easily subdue him.
The incidence of police brutality in this country is skyrocketing as we see the federal gov’t arming themselves to the teeth, our Constitutional rights stripped and gun control measures being enacted across the country.
The government is conditioning us to ‘absolute domination or suffer the ultimate price’ by hiring these thugs and turning them lose on society.
There is so much rampant police brutality now it almost seems that brutalizing and killing people is part of some initiation process.

We are being trained and acclimated that returning vets are the number one terrorist.
What the hells going on with our cops today! This is B.S.
This is beyond appalling, inexcusable, so hurtful. My sincere condolences to this Hero’s family. If there is no justice on earth, the Almighty, will deliver His rightful justice! These so called officers of the law are nothing more than cowers, abusing their power.
How can this happen in America…each day it just gets worse, who is in command in our once safe country?…..
I’ve never seen corruption of police before like I have seen in Southern CA. It seems to be out of control with nobody trying to fix the problem.
Disgusting. The officers involved should all be fired, and prosecuted for murder.
There are people marching on washington too stop all this garbage that’s going on in OUR country.So why don’t a few million people get in their cars and trucks motor cycles and go help them.Their waiting for you right now
