If they were smart they would have released this as soon as it happened.

I was only good for a couple of seconds. Had to stop and look away.

They keep trying to gaslight police brutality to black people, saying things like "it was their fault" but that video and all the others end it right there.

The officer did what he was trained to do.


The Minneapolis Police Department policy on "Maximal Restraint Technique" says it "shall only be used in situations where handcuffed subjects are combative and still pose a threat to themselves, officers or others, or could cause significant damage to property if not properly restrained."

Nelson also included Minneapolis Police Department training materials on the proper use of the "Maximal Restraint Technique," in which photos show demonstrations of officers simulating putting their knee on a handcuffed subject's neck. Nelson argued the training material appeared to contradict a statement made shortly after the incident by Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo that he had not seen "anything that says you place your knee on someone's neck when they're facedown, handcuffed.

Then maybe the people who trained him were the ones who should first lose their jobs?

Quite possibly. To say the very least, reform to the policy and procedures should be explored. It is likely a policy that is decades old. Not like we can punish the people who wrote it. But we can make sure it improves moving forward.

Pretty sad that the police chief didn't know anything about how his officers are trained to restrain people. Maybe chief should be held accountable. If not for the death then, at a minimum, for the wrongful imprisonment of his officers and inciting riots nation wide. Imagine doing your job as an officer and not having your chief back you up when all you did was follow procedure. You want someone to be mad at? Someone to blame? Shift your focus from the poor bastards on the ground to the people who are in charge of them.

Imagine if someone posted the procedure the officer was taught the day that video went viral. People wouldn't have blamed the cops, they would have blamed everyone above them. Police chief couldn't have that happening so he lied. Ruined his officer's lives over it.
