Yeah but there was a pamphlet where they teach their officers this tequnique and the idea that these videos are not the videos that the police department shares and practices from pretty off the mark and I think is literally why Floyd was killed, not because there was a bad apple, but because these officers are just in the wrong mindset for citizen policing.

I do believe that Chauvin being made an example of can begin a trend where police officers dont want to be made examples of.. basically the rule of thumb is "hey do whatever just make sure it doesn't look like you are evil in the video to 12 random people" imo.. which is basically how the army is lol

gotta be on your best behavior.

Which in the grand scheme of things is my biggest beef with the cops, that they act like there gods and the smartest people in the universe.

So id like to see them ask questions like "sir can you breathe ok?" and shit. So I consider this a victory.

But I would have liked to see the administration be held accountable in the same way that I think drug dealers are a dime a dozen, so are hot head cops. But if we consistently toss them in jail then that'll be a less efficient solution to the problem but a solution none the less.
