Between Buffalo and The Bronx, Andrew Cuomo is going to be having a day tomorrow.

The cop in Buffalo had arm tattoos that should make him very easy to identify by the police. We’ll see if they actually hold him accountable (narrator: they won’t).
He’s already been fully ID’d and doxxed (including home address) by Twitter.

I assume tomorrow’s brutality squad will conveniently have their name badges covered up with a black patch in this victim’s honor.
(I typed the same thing charmtrap did, but less concisely. ; ) )
National media jumping in on that Buffalo video now. This seems like it could be a pretty big thing.
Keep thinking about that twitter thread posted earlier today. Our history in this country says that we’re willing to stomach a pretty heavy degree of police brutality against persons of color…but not against whites.

I’m right there with you, that was horrible yet very enlightening to watch. I really hope that guy is ok.

It seems like they’ve been given a green light by Barr that nothing will happen to them.
I hope internal affairs is every bit as scary, career-threatening, assholish, and abusive to these cops as most old movies and TV shows make them seem.
The consistent use of unnecessary force is absolutely appalling.
Fucking hell. Just… put all the pigs in jail and throw away the key.
What the fuck is happening in this country? Scary and shocking. I don’t think I’ve ever seen the cops be this brazen in the past. This feels different.

The Biden administration is going to have to take a look at this stuff and go after a bunch of these cops.
We’re also going to have to get a lot of jury nullification, including if necessary, folks who harm police.

How long can this go on before there is genuine and co-ordinated retaliation against police?
