There have been numerous deaths at the hands of police that received national attention, and countless other that didn't. Every one was, at minimum, a tragedy; At the very least a tremendous shortcoming of modern policing. Others were straight up atrocities, all too common abuse, racism and cruelty masquerading as law enforcement.

But the ones with recordings always hit harder. It did with Eric Garner. It did with George Floyd. It absolutely did wity Tyre Nichols. Thats why efforts to stop or outlaw the filming of police is bullshit. Their actions either stand up to public scrutiny or they don't. These are murders and they shouldnt be able to hide by misleading reports or straight up lies.
