    Isn't using the internet to organize and promote violence kinda illegal?

      It was for about one day, couple of years ago, if you recall.

        The police are blue, not black

          https://www.mediaite.com/news/breaking-memphis-pd-release-shocking-bodycam-footage-of-five-cops-beating-tyre-nichols/

          The 4 videos. Very long. To save you time:

          Video 1: Shows the traffic stop where the suspect semi-resisted and when pepper sprayed and tased, flees on foot. Cops get mad they were caught in the pepper spray.

          Video 2: The 2:00 to 4:00 mark shows the bad stuff. Kicked in head, baton beaten…ok those two things maybe to get him to put hands behind back. But then hand held back by a cop while other cops take turns punch him? Not good.

          Video 3: The baton cop. You can see him get mad he gets pepper sprayed then goes in for some baton hits after losing his cool.

          Video 4: Half audio, not much added.

          It’s weird, the cops acted so ghetto and immature once they got caught with pepper spray. Sure the guy resisted arrest but it quickly spiraled into nearly a gang beating after the cops get pissed off.

              They were raised in a culture of violence, incubated by systemic oppression. The CRT take writes itself.

                I smell a false flag operation.

                The whole reason we call them illegal aliens is because they’re subject to our laws.

                  Someone is claiming that Nichols was grabbing for one of the cop's gun. That will likely be their defenses strategy.

                    Haven’t watched the video, but you aren’t restraining someone by beating the crap out of them.

                      Because basketball players have a special insight into this beating.

                      Memphis Grizzlies coach Taylor Jenkins watched a televised interview Friday of Tyre Nichols' mother speaking about the loss of her son and he lost control of his emotions.

                      "I cried," Jenkins said.

                      The outrage, frustration, sadness and anger was evident around the basketball world Friday, the day a video was released showing how Nichols, a 29-year-old father, was killed by five Memphis police officers. The NBA, WNBA and several teams released statements of support for the family, as did the players' unions.

                                I disagree. The genesis of this originated in the culture these guys grew up in - all of them.

                                  That and, as LuFins Dad already pointed out, power. I really do not think there are any other reasons or explanations.

                                        @Jolly said in Tyre Nichols police beating/murder:

                                        That can hang with them for the rest of their short life.

                                        There.

                                        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                          This was like a movie's opening weekend after a full marketing press by a major studio. One still never knows what the box office will be. I get the sense that the audience response has been lukewarm to positive. It'll comfortably make its money back.

                                          Education is extremely important.
