- trhway 5y agoexactly. If committing horrible things is a business as usual that is the firm basis for getting organizations listed as terrorist, criminal (RICO), etc.

- bjornsing 5y agoWell, if group x don’t want the stigma then they should expel and denounce the few bad people.
- syops 5y agoIt’s not just one video. It’s just the latest example of many such videos. It’s another example of police committing crimes and getting away with it. For other examples lookup police officers and the domestic violence they routinely get away with. Group X is horrible when there are consistently minor consequences when these things are exposed. In this case the brutality occurred months ago and only came to light through a lawsuit being filed. It was only then that the officers faced some repercussions. This is common and widespread. So called good police routinely coverup and protect the bad ones. Consequences only occur if there is publicly released video and even when there is released video convictions and real consequences are rare. There is widespread usage of extra-judicial punishments by police with little to no consequences. Citizens exercising Constitutional get arrested where the only charge is resisting arrest. There is a policing problem in the U.S. Let’s not pretend that there isn’t one.
