It doesn’t really matter actually. Cops pull over drunk white people every night of the week and don’t beat and kill them.

Drunk teens run from cops and are not beaten.

Drunks after sporting events riot in the street, cops don’t beat them.

Cops can only use force when they believe there is a danger to themselves or the community. There never was.

He got scared and ran. They got angry that they had to chase him. Looks like one cop maybe got sprayed in his eye.

They find him and kick him in the head multiple times. They hold him while others near him.

How can anyone feel safe around police no matter your color or their color? These men beat him to death.

I’m so heartbroken for his family. I can’t imagine dying like that. Feeling so helpless and terrified.

So sickening.

Being enraged to riot is understandable but it’s not the cops who will suffer.

I know the job messes with your head.

I wish we weren’t such a violent country/culture.

What a $hitty world we’ve created for our children.


There's something really wrong with many, many, many men. They have these fragile little egos and when something doesn't go their way, they react to an insane level. Is it right to run from a cop? No, but it should never be a death sentence or result in straight up violence.


I generally advocate for doing what cops say and dealing with any wring doing in court. But after watching the video, how hot they came in, dragging him from the car, screaming and oepoer spraying him while he tried to de-escalate...at a certain point, if I think my life is in danger, I'm going to try to get away. I can't really blame him for that. Maybe they killed him because he ran, but Tyre ran because he thought they were going to kill him. And they did.


It's a self fulfilling prophecy.

Great strategy! Fight the police because they will kill you if you don't. ha


I mean he could have laid there and let them suffocate him against the ground or beat him to death on the spot. I’d at least give myself the chance to live by running. He’s seen all the same videos and court cases of these scenarios to know, he’s likely going to die. I mean hell at this point being in your home and eating ice cream or sleeping can get you killed by cops with zero liability from the cops. Reckless driving/DUI does not justify beating a person to death, but I guess if you are black that’s the reason it is. He pulled over and stopped for Christ sake.

I wish they would test the cops blood for substances after every death in police custody.

The final autopsy results are not available yet, but those in charge absolutely know the toxicology results already. If nothing has leaked, it most likely means they didn’t find anything in his system.

I’d think they’d be more likely to hide the results if he actually had illegal drugs in his system. The guilty cops absolutely need to be in prison.

I wonder if there will be any more charges for the cops who stood around and watched.


Depends on which officers you are talking about. The difference between the floyd case and this case is that officers were busy attempting to control the perp in this case.


Not, they were beating him for sport. It is disturbing you can’t recognize that.


+1 They’re shouting show us your hands as they're holding his hands, and get on the ground as he's on already on the ground. Then they’re deciding what their story should be later.

Does a prosecutor count for you? Because my sister is a prosecutor watched the video and was beyond disgusted. She absolutely agrees with the murder charges.

I don’t know. The news said it was a traffic stop. But there may have been another reason for the scorpion unit to go so violent so quickly.

Whatever the reason was, the police need more training on deescalation and appropriate level of force to do their tough jobs.

This was tragic and obviously excessive use of force even if he was a drug dealer or whatever. There was no evidence on the video he was reaching for a gun as the police claimed .they kept kicking and hitting him while he was handcuffed on the ground. It was clearly unnecessary use of lethal force.


What evidence is there of him being a drug dealer? When did this place become infested with racists?


Even assuming everything this person said was true the video is indefensible. Of course they're just talking out their rear.


You and person taking offense have reading comprehension issues. The person advocating for better and longer police training said he or she did not know what the reason the scorpion unit stopped him was. He or she said even it was something worse than a routine trait tx stop, and again they did not know, that the video made it clear that police force was brutal and unnecessary use of lethal force.

You are making excuses. That's exactly what you're doing. There is no excuse. It's unacceptable. Point Blank.


Disagree. You disobey cops and when you run then you are partly responsible for what happens. It's not a 50/50 ownership but there is some or we are a lawless country. What did he would think would happen when he ran - a handshake, a high five? Did he deserve a beating? Absolutely not, but he could have laid down and surrendered like 99% of people do but he made a decision to roll the dice. What is an acceptable outcome from running from the police - let go with a citations, free to go on your own way because you were faster?


You are a stupid sack of shit. They were literally yelling conflicting orders at him and then beating him for not complying with both.


Right the non-stop give me your hands command was unclear - got it.


NP here. I don’t think you watched the same video as the rest of us. Did you watch them all and in order? This one is a no brainer.

You can keep denying reality but the rest of us are not going to fall for your bullshit. We get it, you’re glad a black man is dead. Decent people know you’re despicable.


Nope - not happy about anyone dying but able to view this objectively and see the video without color.

So you're just spreading misinformation that he's a drug dealer? Wtf is wrong with you?


Racism? Secret desire to beat someone to death?

The people I know from high school who became cops were the biggest creeps and bullies. It's not at all surprising.

That's your problem. You want to pretend color has nothing to do with it, and it's everything to do with it. It's the reason our police force even exists.
