Can’t push a narrative. During summer of love I asked people why they all of a sudden cared about police brutality when it became trendy. Anyone could be a victim of bad cops. Media just doesn’t care
While I agree with the sentiment, due process must be observed. Book 'em, try 'em, if guilty jail 'em and let the whole prison know they fucked kids. The rest will sort itself out, preferably with several sharpened spoons.
Found 1 guy in the comments trying to take the same reasonable approach: cool your temper and wait for information. Instead, everyone is screaming for justice in the same way as BLM. The Floyd video looked bad, but you tune in 5-10 minutes into an incident without any context to what went on before and it's easy to spin narratives. I think a lot of them are just fed up of... feds, bias, failures like Uvalde.
Floyd was pinned in an uncomfortable looking hold, which upon closer inspection wasn't nearly as bad as it looked from a distance.
These cops are beating this guy in the head and kneeing him in the ribs or stomach. Maybe it will turn out that there's more to the story, but I don't see any way that it becomes justified. At best, they're probably just incompetent.
But hey, at least it can't be called racist, which will likely save the taxpayers some lawsuit payout money.

Yeah I saw a dude try to claim that his resistance after getting the shit beat out of him was justification for the previous beating lmao
Cops need to lose their fucking jobs and pensions for this shit.
Remember- if this is what they do in public - the torture they do in private is 100x worse!
I doubt it. 'In private' people have already been restrained. Even if they wanted to, they wouldn't have an excuse.
If nobody witnesses it and there's no evidence to corroborate their story, then why would they even need an excuse?
That's fucking grotesque.
Unless that dude's a kiddy fucker or something, in which case they didn't go far enough.

True.
I just watched them continually escalating the assault to be more and more brutal, and all I could think was 'Damn, what did this guy do!?'
We don't know what happened before, though doesn't seem like there's anything that could justify this.

regardless, that was unequivocal brutality, you don't get to gang beat a guy on the ground who is already restrained.
Already restrained and clearly unconscious. Legs don't flail limply around like that if "resisting".
