> However with social media we can see that it's not an isolate or exceptional thing but rather a common every day occurrence. I don't see that we can call it a "common, every day occurrence". We have no idea if it's common, that's what the database was/is for. Because of the amount of interactions, excessive force incidents could be and exceptional, every day occurrence. We simply have no idea. Social media hasn't clarified anything about the _rates_ of the incidents, it's only allowed insight into specific incidents that probably would have been swept under the rug in the past.
