Reply to comment by Skimster in Tyre Nichols protests by coldstonestan

Until the perpetrators are convicted things are not settled. The charges definitely are justified and a good sign of improvement, but if these guys get off there may be additional retaliation. Also the overall nature of grotesque publicized gang violence under the name of law enforcement seems far more impactful than one disgusting cop with a bunch of standbys in the case of George Floyd. Even if everyone involved gets convicted it's still an unsatisfactory response for most people that are not ok with this behavior

That's cuz after George Floyd they have experience knowing what to expect. If protests happen again, police will be even more equipped to deal with dissent. Especially since Tyre's execution was so much more violent than George's (imo) and they know people are traumatized, emotional, and upset
