Shocking footage shows a group of children cursing, hitting, and pelting rocks at Minnesota police officers who arrived at a home to arrest a murder suspect.
The video released by Alpha News was recorded last week in St. Paul, a city that saw notorious riots after the killing of George Floyd in 2020.
The 30-second clip shows children, as young as wearing diapers, repeatedly punching one of the cops.
"Shut up, b—h!" the unnamed boy standing in the street in his underwear, screams at a police officer.
"Shut the f–k up!" the child then screams at the other officer, telling him his work boots are "those ugly-ass church shoes."
The toddler then lunges forward and hits one of the cops at least three more times, even as the officers start walking away.
A male voice in the background can be heard encouraging the children and calling one of the officers an "Oreo head," slang for a black person who behaves like a white person.
The kids also threw rocks at the cops, according to Alpha News.
"Behavior of these children is eerily similar to the behaviors of rioters who burned and looted Minneapolis two years ago," Journalist Sheila Qualls, who shared the story first in a column for Alpha News, wrote.
"They cussed, berated, and struck police officers with their fists. This video is disgraceful. Heartbreaking. It is unsettling to law enforcement officers who encounter this behavior daily. It should be frightening to all of us."
"It should be embarrassing to leaders who have failed to lead a community toward virtue and morality," Qualls wrote.
"We can do better, and we must. Let's stop playing politics with our children's lives. I do not believe this is what civil rights leaders wanted for the future of the black community."
"These children and our country deserve better."
"When children like these are eventually arrested or even killed because they have never learned to respect authority, progressives and the media use their deaths as an opportunity to advance the faulty narrative of inherent racism in America," Qualls wrote.
