A police brutality-inspired wedding proposal video has gone massively viral online, but some are questioning the message the video sends.

The video features an Alabama man, Daiwon McPhearson being ordered to get onto his knees by two handgun toting officers from Mobile Police Department.

His hysterical girlfriend intervenes and attempts to defuse the situation only for McPhearson to take out a ring and ask for her hand in marriage.

The video clip was posted on Facebook by Tyler Colvin, who said McPhearson “planned his whole day around this proposal so that everything lined up just right.”

"My friend Daiwon Mcpherson collaborated with Mobile Police Department to create an interesting marriage proposal to Shawna Blackmon tonight. He planned his whole day around this proposal so that everything lined up just right.

"And yes there was a story behind all this he created and fed her throughout the day so that she would be oblivious to it all being a set up.

"I and a few others was asked to film and take pictures. I am working on putting together a big video of all the pics and video from the whole day so that the story gets told. So for now , here is the main shot I got," he captioned the video.

In another video, McPhearson responded to some of the criticism.

“I know my girl, I know exactly how she act, that’s why I did it this way. We both ride and bikers always have a problem with the police. Clearly we’re both black and you have the whole Black Lives Matter thing going on,” he said.

Speaking to Al.com, he said that he talked to Mobile police earlier in the day to arrange the proposal, and reported, "They were all for it!"
