Cop securing woman grabs her boob. She tries to wrest free in reaction, gets nightsticked by cops for her insolence.

To call that a purposeful boob grab is diluting the cop abuse brand IMO.

It's pretty clear if you slow it down and watch it frame by frame.

Yea that's the main takeaway. :rolleyes:

I'm not sure I understand this post. :mellow:

Figure it out.

Yeah, not really in the mood to play games like this and I don't actually care that much since it's just snark anyway.
Yesterday, upon the stair,
I met a man who wasn't there
He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

Jesus Christ. Talk about tone deaf. Circle the wagons!

That's not circling the wagons.  That's saying it's on the commander who gave the order.

Is "I was just following orders" a defense post Nuremberg?

Got to say. As a white foreigner who has never had to deal with American cops, all these videos of police brutality is doing a lot to build empathy for black Americans and deep unease.  I hope I am not alone in this. The protests are working.

Yeah our director said "Black Lives Matter" are our department meeting today. Quite an accomplishment by the police to get the Texas bureaucracy to make a statement of principle like that.

You guys need to get rid of the 2nd amendment. It'd take a lot of wind out of the cops sail when they argue "I feared for my life so I shot him".

Yep, only cops should have guns.

At Nuremberg they generally prosecuted the ones giving the orders too.

What follows is right on brand though. That's a lot of small-dick energy on display.

What do you consider to be an acceptable use of force?  Not intended to be facetious.

Just review the French police's UoF during their recent riots in the last few years.

I am actually very, very happy at how non-violent the protesters have shown themselves to be. We have a lot of guns in the USA, and the riot cops have not been massacred en masse despite the dozens of recorded incidents of them abusing the protests. Bravo to the marchers.
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

There's been a BLM rally in Corbin, Kentucky (birthplace of KFC), a 97% white town that until now was mostly famous for a 1919 race riot in which all the town's black inhabitants were marched at gunpoint to a freight train and sent out of town, which remained white only until well into the XXth century. I'd say if even a place like that has BLM stuff going on then the movement is completely accepted into the US mainstream.
