Body cameras have really only been feasible from a tech + cost + cloud storage perspective within the last decade anyway.

And it’s great because now we can actually have accountability like this.

I still want to know who hired and trained these cops. It’s important to understand why they acted like this, and why they acted like this ON CAMERA which means they thought they were justified and could get away with it. Unreal

Ok after seeing everything I have to agree this was quite egregious

That's a big shift from your first post in this thread. Good to see that you didn't dig your heels in and damn the evidence like some folks will inevitably do.

There are countless quotes throughout that will end them.

Dude had 1 chance to keep from getting his arse kicked. And that was to get on his stomach and put his hands behind his back in the first video. He chose poorly and let murderous cops decide his fate.

In the second video - one cop kicked the dude in the face twice while he was subdued by 2 other cops.

They, then stood him up and the (same?) cop continually nails him with haymakers until he goes limp for a few secs

Then they all pile on top of him

Sorry cops, won’t be too much bootlicking on this one

That said, if you are surrounded by cops, complying helps prevent an asskicking

They could have easily gotten him cuffed up off the ground and in a police car. He weighed 150 lbs.

The Police Chief said so far, there is no proof he was reckless driving. LINK

Yet I have read where these were cops that have never been cited before.

Was it personal? Not one of them coming up on the scene spoke out and said, 'stop-get him in the car.' It was like a planned beat down. That one cop that sprayed himself with pepper spray is proof they were all out of hand beating him.

I'll say what no one wants to: They were animals whether they were black or white. But it looked like a gang- hood beat down. I will also say that if they were white this country would be burnt down by now.

Tyree's mom said NO VIOLENCE peaceful only! They said he was from Cally liked to skateboard and was a mommas boy.

Him calling out for mom will make whoever is beating him guilty as sin---- for any woman watching.

You listen to the language and the way they talked among themselves? Hey I am guilty of having a nasty mouth myself but I also have situational awareness, especially in a professional / job setting. These cops that beat this guy were straight ghetto, even more ghetto that the guy they killed IMO.

Maybe they were used to operating this way and would have gotten away with it if he had lived. But once someone dies, the shite hits the fan because you have to do some serious justifying.

I'm just watching Smoke n Scan on YouTube. He's switching around to different protests. Nothing much going on, though.

Really hope it stays that way

Sadly, this will not be the last time we all witness something in total disbelief of what we believe should be the obvious standard for the American Police Officer.

This incident represents what so many in the industry have suspected would happen eventually as a result of lowered recruiting standards following the demonization of this profession by racial opportunist and their false narratives.

This incident is what you get when you sacrifice the quality of applicants in exchange for other qualifications.

The color of your skin is as trivial as the color of your hair in 2023. Although a diverse police force does offer many values, those goals fail to measure up to the importance of a police force built around the moral compass of men and women with the highest character and strongest integrity.

We need to return to the days when we encourage and most importantly select only the best, brightest, and bravest who are eager to serve others with passion and purpose.
