Memphis BLM Activist: Tyre Nichols's Killing Is Part of Police Brutality Crisis for Black Residents

Amid nationwide protests, prosecutors charge five former Memphis police officers with murder in the death of Tyre Nichols, who died January 10 of kidney failure and cardiac arrest after a vicious beating three days earlier during a traffic stop. Memphis and other cities across the U.S. are expecting mass protests against police violence, with body-camera footage of the deadly traffic stop set to be released Friday evening. We go to Memphis for an update from community organizer Amber Sherman, a member of the Memphis chapter of Black Lives Matter, who says police brutality is nothing new for many residents. "It's literally just being caught on camera," Sherman says. "We have experienced this same kind of violence over and over and over again in our communities."

    At Long Branch, NJ we experienced police brutality, human rights violations. When we tried to report to internal affairs, the department refuse to put on writing our complaints, and the police Chief Muolo. Keep deaf ears to o ur complaints, and the municipal Judge George Cieri, was a piece o c.... working for the corrupt system and ignoring the innocents, who were accused of false and bogus charges.

    I worked in Memphis a couple times way back in the 1980's and I recall some Memphis cops carried those full size riot sticks, not the regular ones you see and you could feel the menacing vibe from them sometimes. I don't recall any Black cops but if that's the culture, it takes on a life of its own.

Nobody had held them accountable up to this point which allowed it to escalate to this death.

Lack of education plays a big part also. The imported Afrjcans were definitely kept illiterate and severely punished if they were caught learning to read. And yes that was in the time of slavery but attitudes do trickle down and there are still a lot of unspoken biases against the black man. Unfortunately his physical strength often induces fear. It's not about blaming the white man but the legal and economic system that supports discrimination.

    "Official Oppression".. key charge. ANY police officer violating this penal code should mean they immediately lose their Qualified Immunity, which also needs to be taught to all police cadets in a very strict way, as a part of police training. If you violate a person's civil or constitutional rights, you're finished. Period. If you're a government worker, you work for the public and are therefore a public servant. That's what people pay taxes for, not to be oppressed instead. They need to be reminded who they work for and why.

    @@trophyscene5015 - Well, there's still a difference between a Communist country like North Korea and a Free country like the USA. True, we don't live in an authoritarian dictatorship and those Korean public servants may seem like nice people, but if they were told to put all first born male children into a blender, they would have to follow the orders or it would mean their own skin. Incidentally, they must all listen to daily orders through a radio system and they also have a weekly ceremony where they must all weep before a statue of their 'dear leaders'. If you don't shed a tear, you're seen as being disgraceful. So there's a different moral structure to take into consideration as well. Think of it like the peak of Socialism where the bread doesn't wait for you, rather you wait in line for the bread instead. It's the reverse of Capitalism or a Capitalist system like in the USA. So again, not only a different moral structure, but political too. Basically, either you be nice or you pay the price.. and by price I mean the alternative is hte person could face life in a work camp or they could get the firing squad. In the USA though, it isn't that extreme. You be nice and not act like a tyrant, not because you're under force to do so, but because it's your duty as a public servant. Simple. Just don't be an idiot. Be kind, be polite and do your job. Period. On the other hand, if someone wants to be a violent a-hole, then we can take it up a notch. Other than that, free speech. Say whatever you want, but just watch where you put your hands. No hands on. That's the rule. A weapon only in case of fear of death or bodily harm. Otherwise, hands off. That means tasers as well. Use only your words unless someone goes hands on. If they touch you, then it's a mistake. That's the rule. No hands on.

Those things probably do kill more than anything else, especially food additives, sodiums, neurological flavor enhancers, preservatives, etc.. which have gotten far more deadly than almost anything right now and definitely killing more than police ever would. However, as for the legal system in the US or 'simply' being arrested, let's just say that giving an inch would lead to authority eventually taking a mile.. and in a lot of ways, they already have. So that's why there's something in place called Due Process, which prevents police from being the Judge/Jury and Executioner on the street. Without it, we'd have a full blown dictatorship with Nazis running around executing people in the back of the head for whatever they think is a good reason. Not gonna happen I'm afraid.. and if ever did get close to that, there would be a bloodbath the likes of which the media couldn't even ever handle because it would be at their own back door as well. Nope, this isn't N.Korea.. or Canada where they disarmed everyone either.. and it wont be, but rather this is the place where the founding fathers came, who were seen as outlaws escaping from the tyranny of the British monarchy. This is where they ended up. That's why they created the Constitution and the Bill of Rights. That's what your dealing with. Time to dig up those old history books.

    Tragically, the Scorpion Unit is made of up of cops who are jaded and demoralized from dealing with the worst-of-the-worst offenders in Memphis. Thankfully, the Scorpion Unit has been disbanded, but it's frightening to think of how many of other cops in this unit are "still" ticking time bombs, waiting to go completely berserk on the next citizen they stop on the street or in a vehicle.

    I said I wasn't gonna watch the full video, but as a black woman I just had to see for myself the type of injustice and police brutality forced up on our people. So I watched it and came to a conclusion. These were not police officers that did this, not by a long shot. These were vigilante street hoods that killed that innocent young man. Thugs. Hood rats. Murderers. Natural born killers. Period. The way they just made up their own version of the story as they went along, with no remorse, and everyone of them went along with it, LIKE IT WAS NOTHING!!!!! Absolutely disgusting, and a disgrace to the BADGE! And it really sickens me to see the word POLICE sprawled across their backs while kicking that young man in the face, helpless and on the ground. Are you kidding me? Serve and protect? Then they pass him around for each thug to get their kicks in? Unbelievable. I can't even write anymore. Got anxieties just writing this comment. I am just sickened to the core behind this. I cried like a baby seeing that poor sweet mother on CNN about her son, her baby boy calling out to her as he was being beaten by the police, only a block away from home. SMH. I have no more words. 💐Rest in Peace Tyre. 💐God has called you home. No more suffering, no more pain, no more sickness or dying. Rest on sweet brother, enjoy your rest. SAY HIS NAME: TYRE NICHOLS!!!
