@Shira: Do you have a moral duty to watch the police beating of Tyre Nichols?

@drewharwell @Shira I think everyone has a moral duty to know what is on the video, and know when someone says "he should have complied" that he did, and was treated like a piñata. He was beaten with his hands cuffed behind his back, and never did a damn thing to try and harm a cop. He only tried to curl up in a ball.
@drewharwell @Shira , Damn, just listened to Jayar Jackson (reporter) give a theory... these videos are put out to make it blatent to the racists that these things happen. And the thousands of videos have served this purpose. Now they are entertainment to people who would have in another age gone to the public lynchings for a picnic lunch. The purpose for them has passed, and been replaced by something horrible.
