It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

A deaf man in Oklahoma City claims Oklahoma Highway Patrol troopers used excessive force against him for not obeying their commands, despite a sign he says he has in his vehicle that alerts others that he is deaf.


Just because you don't obey a cop's command does not give him license to beat you ... even if you are not deaf.
