Tasers can kill people. I know you know. It really should be beyond the pale. That violence becomes the default action by the police tells about how they have been trained. I understand that humans can strike out when afraid, and I can't judge that response, but when police act like this, and are given weapons to do this, that is the system. Preaching to the choir, but my god.
I couldn't finish this video. I made myself watch and witness George Floyd's death, and it was a terrible thing to see, but doing so was my civic duty. I really feel this.
