BIRMINGHAM, Alabama - Friends of a 21-year-old man fatally shot by a Jefferson County sheriff's deputy one week ago have recorded a video lashing out at police, and some law enforcement officers countywide are on a heightened alert.
The three-minute video produced by BLACK DISTRICT is a tribute to Devante Kyshon "Red Man" Hinds, who died May 9 near Walmart and Milo's on Parkway East. Authorities said Hinds tried to run a deputy over with a car and then was shot to death by lawmen.
Authorities said Hinds was involved with a heroin deal when he was shot. He was pronounced dead at a Birmingham hospital.
The video calls for leaving "police bleeding" and "dropping a cop" and has caused a stir among law enforcement, some of whom believe it is a not-so-veiled threat. "They are in an uproar and worried about some type of retaliation,'' said one officer who didn't want his name used.
Warning: The video is laced with profanity. Click here to watch the video.

Video removed! I’m shocked!
Waiting for the comments about police brutality, shooting dogs, and going home safe.
The video may of been replaced, but the account had other videos that shows the gang members and their nicknames. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F3qd9tY9gt4
BTW.. the video above I linked was NOT safe for work viewing.
Here ya go!

Here's a little balance for the list, guys.
Sometimes brutality really is justified.
(Did anyone bring popcorn?)
Wait no longer.
My posting record will show that am a huge supporter of law enforcement, and I have no use for the thugs discussed in this article. However, that does not justify unnecessary dog shootings, nor does it justify an over-use of militarized police tactics. There are some bad apples in the barrel, and it doesn’t help anyone to pretend otherwise.
The good citizens of B’ham better watch for scared cops with itchy trigger fingers for the next few months.
I bet two out of that gaggle are Larry Langford’s spawn.
