In addition to the obvious outrage, pay attention, too, to how hard the Philadelphia PD is working to make sure you don’t know what happened. It’s been almost a month, and they still haven’t shown anyone but themselves the bodycam footage.
They promised to show the video to the dead man’s family, but then said, nah.
We still wouldn’t know what had happened, if not for a neighbor with a security cam running.
It obliterates the old canard that “one bad apple doesn’t spoil the whole bunch,” when the whole bunch is doing all they can to protect the bad apple.
I will never understand how everyone isn’t constantly aware they are on camera at all times.
They’ve been able to get away with anything they wanted to for decades. The fact that they no longer can hasn’t had time to impact their culture yet.
