ESPN's Jemele Hill Smears Philly PD, Implies Race Played a Role in Starbucks Arrest

ESPN writer Jemele Hill has blasted the Philadelphia Police Department, and implied that racism played a role in the handling of the arrest of two black men in a downtown Philadelphia Starbucks on Thursday.

Video emerged recently, which showed two black men getting arrested in a Starbucks. A white patron can be seen, and heard, sarcastically questioning police over why they were taking the men into custody:

In addition, the person who shot the video, Ms. DePino, who describes herself as “outraged since November 8” on her Twitter profile, assumed the black men were arrested “for doing nothing.”
