A nerdy Black man was beat so badly by Tennessee cops this past week that its said he looked worst than Emmit Til. He's dead now, and cops are refusing to release the body cams because they fear riots. The cops were in an unmarked car, with no uniforms on. Its reported the cops continued to beat him even after he was cuffed.

By all accounts #TyreNichols was a Black, nerdy skateboarder with no connections to crime or even police contact other than driving while Black.

@jaysonmassey Ooph. It's rare we get this level of rapid damage control. Certainly some respect for the city leaders acting swiftly on this matter.
