This where I am with it. If a guy is in there for a violent or heinous crime...fukk him.
Now someone in there for a non-violent crime, theft or drugs, they don't deserve this long as they don't harm an officer unprovoked.
But we need to decide is it oochie wally wally or one mic.
The problem is you think law enforcement cares whether a black did something violent or didn’t. Black people are beaten and killed regardless of their track records.
It didn’t matter what this black man did prior to what happened in that room, they were going to beat and kill him whether he was Mandela or Tookie Williams.
You are basically saying if inmates talk back and act out that they deserve to die or be beaten by armed officers of the law. Which is bullshyt.
Corrections officers, by and large, are some of the least educated people in the workforce. They are often from poor backgrounds and lack social and problem solving skills.
This whole “well all he had to do was shut his mouth and be respectful” as if respect is an objective thing is stupid. “Disrespectful” to a stupid poor person who chooses to spend his day working in a prison is different than someone who is educated working in a more meaningful position.
You trying to excuse this as some type of karmic justice is no different than George Floyd being lynched and white people saying “well he was a drug addict”. Lynching a handcuffed black man when you are being paid by the state is wrong. Period.
