Default You got knocked the F out......Tire Nichols body cam beating here

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...r-charges.html

Quote:
Horrific bodycam video shows five Memphis cops kicking Tyre Nichols in the head, hammering him with a baton, raining punches down, pepper spraying and tazing him as he screams 'mom, mom' in brutal five minute beating - before he died in hospital

WARNING: GRAPHIC CONTENT
Police in Memphis have released footage of fatal beating of Tyre Nichols
Memphis police chief says the footage is the worst she has ever witnessed
Five cops have since been fired and charged with second-degree murder
Cops across the country are bracing for a violent reaction to the footage


I mean, yeah, looks a little excessive to me.....

The ONLY reason nothing is burning is because no white officers were involved.

Let's see how long it takes to blame a white guy that trained them in the academy.

Normally I'd just assume the guy died of net neutrality or the Trump tax cuts, but I want to dare to be different this time. I'm calling his death as caused by the overturn of Roe v. Wade.

Normally, I back the blue.

I see some fellows getting fired and arrested.


A lot of this was completely unnecessary.

You mean the cops excuse for bothering the guy? They don't need one but they have a limitless number of laws to choose from should the need arise.

Good thing it’s the cold time of year, it should help keep the chimp outs to a minimum.

The talking head script readers on the news are foaming at the mouth for riots to break out is what I noticed the most.

Looks like the cops got pissed at him for breaking away and running from them.

They were some type of special team called 'Scorpion'. Probably not the first time they beat the crap out of someone.

This one is clearly murder.

I don't have a dog in the fight though. So, yawn.

Nah...they'll just set more fires to keep warm. Too many sneaker stores to loot so the cold won't stop them.

Officers have already been fired. I read this morning that they will be charged with second degree murder, and possibly other charges.

I just saw the videos this morning, and while him running was not going to help, they clearly beat him excessively. I firmly believe that actions have consequences, but this is clearly wrong and justice needs to be served.
