OCEAN CITY, Md. (WJZ) — Arrests in Ocean City are sparking controversy after police take down a pregnant woman on the beach Sunday.

She was part of a large group that says it was being harassed. But police have a very different version of what happened.

Mary Bubala reports--the incident was caught on cell phone video.

The cell phone video picks up shouting with Ocean City officers quietly standing by. It's at this point, according to police, that 25-year-old Abdul Kargbo of Woodbridge begins cursing and yelling at officers and then begins walking away.

Soon officers take down other members of the group, including a woman who is pregnant.

The take downs continue. Meanwhile, the pregnant woman had to have an emergency c-section.

Police say she soon will be charged with assault and resisting arrest, along with Abdul Kargbo, 24-year-old Musa Seisay and 21-year-old Saidu Kargbo.

"We have full confidence that our officers did act appropriately," said Lindsay O'Neal, Ocean City police spokesperson.

O'Neal says it all started with the group yelling, cursing and disrupting families at the beach. She says a lifeguard asked them to tone it down and one of the suspects allegedly threatened the lifeguard--followed by threats to police when they arrived.

O'Neal says the pregnant woman was assaulting officers prior to being taken down.

"Any person who assaults a police officer must be detained," O'Neal said.

Members of the group at the beach that day would not go on camera, but they say the police account is totally false and they were racially profiled.

Members of the group are considering legal action against Ocean City police.

The group also says it has more video of the incident.

Officer not punished after admitting to kicking a nine month pregnant woman

A police officer from Dekalb County, Ga. with a history of violent conduct kicked a heavily pregnant woman in the stomach in a recent incident that the officer's superiors described as within department policy. The incident occurred when officer Jerad Wheeler was called to the pregnant woman's home to settle a dispute involving the woman's brother and his partner. When her brother began arguing with the officer, nine month pregnant Raven Dozier said that Wheeler pulled out a taser and used it on him. When Miss Dozier started crying and asking the officer why he was resorting to such actions, Wheeler kicked her in the stomach, arrested her and charged her with obstruction of a police officer. Thankfully, the child was not affected and was born healthy via an emergency C-section two weeks after the incident. The charges against Dozier were dropped. "What kind of a human being kicks a pregnant woman?" said Dozier's attorney Mark Bullman. "I mean, forget whether or not it is a police officer that is supposedly protecting people." In his incident report Wheeler claimed that he could not tell that Dozier was pregnant and that he kicked her out of self defense because she was acting aggressively. Wheeler described the kick as "a front push kick to the abdomen, as he was taught to do at the academy."

Cop Knocks Woman's Teeth Out in Illegal Arrest

"A police officer in Texas was jailed this week for knocking a woman's teeth out during an illegal arrest he made in late May.

James Angelo Palermo, 40, is charged with aggravated assault by a public servant for the May 29 incident in which he allegedly slammed a pedestrian against a car, the Austin American-Statesman reports"*

In an almost unbelievable case, Texas police officer James Angelo Palermo was arrested for grabbing a female pedestrian and slamming her so hard that her teeth were knocked out and she suffered a concussion. Why would he attack an innocent woman, and was justice served? Cenk Uygur, Gina Grad, and Jimmy Dore discuss.

Race Matters: Conservative Publication Warns White Children To Avoid African Americans Because Blacks Are More Likely To Be “Violent Criminals”

Via Think Progress reports:

A top conservative publication published a column on Wednesday advising young white children to stay away from black people, despite firing a columnist roughly a year ago for writing a very similar piece in a different publication.

Victor Davis Hanson, a scholar of military history and longtime National Review foreign affairs columnist, has a habit of dipping his toes into racially uncomfortable water. In a past column, for example, Hanson accused President Obama of attempting to victimize white people for political gain.

His column today, however, directly echoes the now-infamous piece by self-described “race-realist” John Derbyshire that National Review deemed a firing offense. Derbyshire’s TakiMag piece, the conceit of which was that the author was giving a white equivalent of “The Talk” that black parents give their children about racism, included gems like “avoid concentrations of blacks not all known to you personally,” “stay out of heavily black neighborhoods,” and “if accosted by a strange black in the street, smile and say something polite but keep moving.”

The thrust of Hanson’s argument — black men are criminals and you should stay away from them, my son — is largely indistinguishable from Derbyshire’s. “Be careful if a group of black youths approaches you,” Hanson quoted his father as saying before a move to San Francisco. “After some first-hand episodes with young African-American males,” he continued, “I offered a similar lecture to my own son.”
