        @slcmayor @ChiefMikeBrown - not enough; suspension of officers involved at a minimum; anger management classes mandatory; settlement.

        If it's not a lawful arrest then it is false imprisonment and assault, right?

        Police and nurses over here in UK are seeing this video and are utterly shocked and disgusted. How can this have happened in USA?

        Cops are supposedly trained to de-escalate the situation. But when cops are the situation, who de-escalates them? 🤔https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/903711362551078913 …

        Did they consider that the "blood draw policy" may not have been the problem, but rather the do-not hire-bullies policy they don't have?

        The man is a power addict. Addicts don't like to hear the word no. Which is exactly what happened.

        That has always been the need: a legal consequence that is saw through and accountability. A slap on the wrist has never been enough.

        Lately it seems officers only get fired for *saying* horrible things, but not for *doing* horrible things.
