Can’t say I’m surprised, this really is a fascist country. If you’ve never seen it, I’d advise against watching the video of Nichols getting beaten to death, it’s 100 times worse than Rodney King.

    Did the fucking jury not see the body cam footage of the guy screaming out for his mom with his hands restrained while officers beat him and shout “Stop resisting!” when it’s obvious he’s physically unable to resist? They were clearly beating him just because they could and were deliberately obfuscating the situation so they could get away with it.

    Obviously the jury didn’t care much.
