Tyre Nichols body cam footage

[pknopp]

He ran away

Running away is not fighting. Running away is to keep from getting beat.

 

[Mac-7]

Which law did he violate?

Failure to follow lawful instructions of a police officer

Everything escalated from there

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Beyond sad. Beyond Human

Yep

 

[pknopp]

Now that is funny. Yeah, their faces but Im not hearing about tadarrius or demtrius.

You are unable to determine their race without their names attached?

 

[pknopp]

Failure to follow lawful instructions of a police officer

Everything escalated from there

There has been no evidence anything the police did was lawful.

 

[Mac-7]

Running away is not fighting. Running away is to keep from getting beat.

I’m sure he did that too when they chased him down

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Nope

 

[Mac-7]

There has been no evidence anything the police did was lawful.

Maybe not

But contrary to what the Black Brain Disease tells its victims, that cannot be settled on the street

That is where your case falls apart
It was not a lawful instruction

Everything escalated from there

No excuse for how the police acted
It was the police who violated the law

It is why they were fired

 

[Missourian]

Running away is not fighting. Running away is to keep from getting beat.

Running away is resisting. Refusing to comply with being handcuffed is resisting. Not pulling over is resisting.

 

[pknopp]

Maybe not

But contrary to what the Black Brain Disease tells its victims, that cannot be settled on the street

It's going to stop or things will burn again.

 

[pknopp]

Running away is resisting. Refusing to comply with being handcuffed is resisting. Not pulling over is resisting.

There has not been any evidence the police had any justification for pulling him over. Even the officers superiors have noted this.

 

[rightwinger]

He ran away

He ran away from an unlawful beating

To do evil a human being must first of all believe that what he’s doing is good, or else that it’s a well-considered act in conformity with natural law.

[rightwinger]

Running away is resisting. Refusing to comply with being handcuffed is resisting. Not pulling over is resisting.

Your claim falls apart when police are unable to articulate why they are trying to arrest him

 

[Mac-7]

It was not a lawful instruction

On the street it was lawful till a judge says otherwise

 

[Mac-7]

It's going to stop or things will burn again.

Do you think letting criminals run wild is the answer?

 

[pknopp]

Do you think letting criminals run wild is the answer?

There is no evidence of a criminal here so your point is moot.

 

[rightwinger]

Lets look at it this way…

What would have happened if police had just chased him down and arrested him without further injury?

Charges of fleeing would have been dropped because police never had any reason to arrest him in the first place.

Nichols would have a civil rights claim and civil claim for pulling him from his car, pepper spraying him and shooting him with a taser without cause.

This may be silly, but it looked to me like the pavement was wet, and he simply did not want to lie face-down on the wet pavement. Other than that, he was sitting on the ground, and the one officer kept yelling, "GET ON THE GROUND!" He was on the ground.

Where in the world can these cops get a fair trial?
