Take their uniform off and they call it gangland violence.

Absolutely insane. How someone can do that to another person is beyond me.

When the 5 guys got sacked asap plus 2 EMTs who were there as well without zero fuss from anyone it seemed bad, then when the lawyer says "worse then Rodney King" and the chief of police says "You're going to see acts that defy humanity." you know its going to be something really bad (to put it softly)

Yeah I don't really want to watch it to be honest. Rodney King was horrific and so if this is worse I'm not sure I'll be able to get through it. Are the officers getting murder? I haven't read too far into it

Ah yep

Memphis cop warns beating of Tyre Nichols is 'worse than Rodney King'

Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn Davis has warned that the footage is the worst she has witnessed in her career - warning there are 'acts that defy humanity' in the video.

www.dailymail.co.uk

The former officers, Tadarrius Bean, Demetrius Haley, Justin Smith, Emmitt Martin and Desmond Mills Jr., have each been charged with second-degree murder, aggravated assault, two charges of aggravated kidnapping, two charges of official misconduct and one charge of official oppression.

Other images there but don't want to share here, they are graphic

Now LA is rioting in "protest" - and the cycle continues

I understand people are angry but I don't understand why they riot in another state. I feel sorry for the cops that actually do their jobs properly.

America I guess

It was horrific footage. Calling for his mum is heartbreaking.

The only reason there isn't riots at the moment is because the officers were black

Even so there are some pretty unruly protests.

Police killing a black man there was always were going to be.

The stats are way above the representative level of the population, but unfortunately neither are the violent crime statistics.
There are also more hate crimes committed by blacks, when compared to their relative population.

Great to see an Australian team win the doubles.

African Americans are far and away the most likely to be victims of hate crimes in the US. The anti white stuff is not even close.

2 years in a row, must be a while since it's happened

Those campaigners are so biased and full of s**t I don't want to give them the hits.

The guy who runs that site is notorious for cutting videos up to suit his narrative and this video jumps around a heap so it's hard not to take what is said with a grain of salt although it seems pretty damning.

I don't understand the issue with gain of function research or why it's illegal other than the risk of it leaking from the lab - but also if they're doing it and it is illegal then **** em.

It's hilarious watching these free market libertarians complain about the second half of the video though.

The 'oversight committee-to-executive' pipeline is so well documented in basically every industry that is subjected to such a system from finance to pharmaceuticals.

There's a video from a financial regulatory body in the US where the meeting closes with the chair of the body congratulating one of the bodies members on getting a job with a financial institution whose executive is literally sitting across from them having just been subjected to questioning and everyone is very jovial about it.

You really don't need hidden camera footage of this stuff because they're all incredibly open about it.

The only way to stop that is through legislation banning you from sitting on a regulatory body and then getting a job at a company you're meant to be regulating. Free market clowns like James O'Keefe who runs project Veritas offer zero solution to stuff like this. They simultaneously point at obvious flaws in the market that are bad for consumers to drum up outrage while also championing the reduction of 'red tape' that would prevent this and emphasising a free market economy.
