    Ok let me break it down with crayons because apparently y’all don’t understand that multiple things can be true at the same time:

    1. Sovcit in OP is stupid, annoying, and wrong.
    2. Cops in the US are aggressive, violent, and love to escalate
    3. We don’t have an accurate account of what happened

    Given the above, maybe we don’t have to give the cops the benefit of the doubt and assume that whatever they did to him was necessary and justified?

    The only good guys in this story are the kids, who were probably traumatized by the experience.

      The “victim” here is the one telling the story guy. But you’re right, we don’t have all the facts, but we have some. Like him not obeying lawful commands and getting arrested for it, which he admitted to. He broke the law and you wanna go at the cops for holding him accountable, literally doing their job. You blame the stove for your bad tasting food too?
