Upon seeing the video, Amber claimed that the man deserved the treatment he got and deserves to be arrested. She commented that he should have shown respect for the police officer since he is a figure of the law.
Joe Jitsukawa, a member of JK News, is then seen saying that they as Asian-Americans can’t say anything since they don’t know what the black community goes through.
