#PoliceBrutality #TyreNichols #Police
So Justice don’t matter when it comes to Americans citizens lives being violated? That is sad. We are in a police state.
I agree with Yamiche . Black men killed by cops is way too common a thing.
Also, the Tyre Nichols video is not far off from what happens in school bathrooms, but there is no outrage over those videos. For some reason, only loser men get airtime.
I believe this type of incident rarely occurs. Most traffic stops that go bad do so when the driver repeatedly refuses to obey the officer’s instructions to provide requested documents or whatever, the officers then try to place him under arrest, he resists and ends up getting body-slammed into the road or something similar. In contrast, in this incident, a team of officers wanted to show that they were the toughest gang in the hood.
The never ending murdering of unarmed black people by police and the media’s perpetual yapping about it, is reminiscent of the movie “GroundHog’s Day”.
No end in sight !
You know what would be hella funny if they had a full panel of gang members explaining what happened
This is the same thing the KKK was responsible for, keeping citizens in their place. Authoritarian ego. Remove qualified immunity and a lot of this corruption will decrease.
There has to be accountability at the top bcuz these rabies 5 cops was given the green lights to function with citizens that way.
Stick to the script NBC. Defund the police. Don’t change what you have been promoting for years.
There should now be laws placed on the books SPECIFICALLY for police who cross the line. Just like RICO was created specifically to prosecute kingpins, domestic violence laws were put on the books specifically for men who abuse their wives, etc,etc, its time laws were put on the books designed SPECIFICALLY to prosecute crooked officers. I think the problem has proven to exist and it has proven to be wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy more widespread than the police have been lying about
Those officers have done this before, this is not their first rodeo! More heads are going to roll!
Ain’t you people to defund the police people yeah well don’t call the police if somebody shows up to your house like Paul pelosi’s best friend and he’s got a hammer in his hand and he hits all of you in the head with it. You people in the media who want to defund the police and criticized the police are doing their job. Just because of a bad fuel. Don’t call the police if somebody comes after you.
If the Oakland CA, police chief is suspended for things that happened on his watch, then the entire “leadership staff” of the Walnut CreeKKK police department and Contra Costa County fire department should be fired ASAP. These are basically two large well funded racist gangs. Their glory is in their shame.
Please pray for them,
God is Love.
horribly weak panel
MANDATORY PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
MANDATORY PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
MANDATORY PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
MANDATORY PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
MANDATORY PSYCHOLOGICAL TESTING
Make these cops get a psych test before they can patrol….must be completed within 90 days of hire! This is the only way to weed out the bad cops! Look at the stats on cities/towns that require these roid raging nincompoops! Citizens are much happier and alive! Keep qualified immunity but add psychological exams!
Theres just no satisfying some people
This Chief of Police should make the every Scorpion protest along with all the protesters!
There’s no way the chief didn’t know what the scorpion unit was doing.
Of course there’s a way. The title “Chief” doesn’t come with omniscience.
I Agree, she has been in her position long enough to know what was going on!!!
She was crooked from the start.
This isn’t the 1st video when a white thug crew do this they will get the same action Fired
The chief should resign she allowed this violent unit to brutalize people for months too little too late
Talk is cheap
They are more cops involved in the beating, why aren’t they being mentioned. This is baffling.
The video tells the truth. This is not a traffic stop
Old white sue says condemnation across the board lol like hey look we condemn progress right? Meanwhile a whole life gone
*said:* _”attacks happen every day…”_ It’s not only the attack or even Tyre death.
It that it was done *_”by the state!”_* Officers represent the power of the state.
And when the state abuses power like this, no one is safe – and it’s a huge deal.
Jim Jordan isn’t an ideologue. He’s a white supremacist who doesn’t want laws to protect us from. cops because they’re the white nationalism state enforcers. Condemning Nichols’ death without passing federal laws to prevent further deaths means you approve of it. I don’t care what performative b.s. Jordan says in his official statement
And the only JUSTICE the black people will get is marching in the streets and then everything calms down, and then here comes another video……..
Yada yada yada.nothing but talk 🦜😔 pay reparations and abode agenda for development and the end shall justify the means 🎯 abode . Ghana is our homeland and it’s beautiful we need to talk to our Brothers and sisters in the motherland.america and people are sick
It was Normal for them an the leaders who put teams like this together they know the officers turn into gang member like an not one officer in the group will go against another nomatter what they do wrong
Dont let the police Chief fool you…..She is Queen B
Great video! Very informative!
I am sick and tired of the chiefs PR crap, she came up through the ranks and has been in her position for a year and a half, she knew just how corrupt that task force is.
She didn’t come up through the ranks. I bet she spend less than five years in the street.
First of all, what does any of this have to do you, and secondly, how do you know she knew the task force was corrupt? Incredible how reality is fabricated these days!
How do you know she knew? She has someone over her, who probably knew and he has authority over her. If he doesn’t give the call she can’t step on his toes right?
Yep
What about theLAW MAKERS…Since you won’t change the LAW ….step down, quit, or resign and let someone who will make CHANGE happen
The Chief should be fired….
💠💠 another panel of more interesting perspectives + more importantly •• taking immediate action against all police violence IS the overall take•away from this news segment 💠💠

Change the law so we can sue cop personally and make police pension pay for these mistakes
Yamiche!! Is correct!
In Black households this discussion is reality!!
How do you Stop a car and pull a man out WITHOUT cause
HOW MANY BLACK PEOPLE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE POLICING IS CHANGED!!
yes it was wrong, and they will pay !! but to call it a race issue is insane all five cops were black. Yamiche promotes racism on everything
@Eric Klaus it’s the racist who took over police training since they lost the Civil War to give more power to the States. It is definitely grown bigger but they are at the core. They derived this plan just like having all the monuments created. Racism oppression was weaved in and designed to last forever, not a generation or 2. This takes a lot of criminal and savage forethought but they did it.
@Eric Klaus racism in the police system is institutionalized, police are taught and trained even black cops, that black Americans are all criminals and should be treated as such
@The Purple-Bear please stop with the race excuse,
Black people commit a disproportionate amount of crime.
Focus on increase in crime rates. Segment of Black Community’s cultural of crime: Recent Satistics – 74% black babies born to single mothers, too many into poverty and harm’s way. Black families – 75% no father in home. Stop government programs that facilitate men breeding, women birthing; then treat babies like mongrels; leave them to the streets forcing LE to deal with = police brutalities claims.
Consider police officers whose job requirements are to confront the worst of humanity dailey lost control when things got out of hand. This was an “Elite” group of well-trained officers. One thing for certain to shut down the entire program in this worst area of Memphis is wrong, backword, and disengenuous=wrong message.
It seems a segment of the Black Community has to get the message: You’ve caused enough destruction and chaos: this is not the time for law enforcement to retreat: But, send right message No more resisting traffick stops and/or arrest results in LE Officers going to prison and the lawless hailed victims, elevated to national heroes, and municipalities sued.
Hush 🤡 you can apply this to whites as well..difference is their crimes behind their white Pickett fences…watch any crime show 🤡 😠
🎉🎉BLUISM!!!! They want the people, especially the black people, to be good calm little worker bee slaves & carry on 😓. That is…. Until it’s them & their family member. Don’t fall for the okey doke folks!!!
🎉END BLUISM!!!!!✊🏽
I bet they don’t send them to Gen pop.
What about the Police Officer who tasered Mr. T. Nichols? Why is he not being punished for tasering the Victim? Only the Black Officers are being arrested and charged?
Lol nothing ain’t going change….this will happen again and again….watch…same talk over and over again…
Yamish is a gorgeous goddess. Id walk through fire for her . Im well pleased watching her fabulous ascent upwardly through the broadcasters ranks. Shes worthy
Is this Yaniches man again?? 😐😐
Mrs doubtfire!!!!!!
Police reform will continue to fail. Let us not forget, this police chief was the person who implemented this so-called SCORPION unit. It’s the culture of the police for crying out loud, just casually glance at the euphemism, it says it all….Nothing will change.
You people have lost your minds the paramilitaries are going to stack the mob bought cops like cord wood
The same result will happen to you if you join Assumption uni. This uni uploaded our voice conversation stolen from our teachers office for years. Teachers had no idea of the tape installation. Violating of the privacy led to the bloody incidents like the case of Mr. Tire.
Nothing will ever be good enough for Yamiche because she makes money off her disgust.
they gone fold. Start snitching .When they start. She gone be under radar.
🎼She about to loose ha job🎤🎼
Trust me I know and it makes me sick yet hope is the good thing and vengeance is the lord’s love is the greatest forgiveness is divine and changes happen yet we rise as a human race and give the necessary things to those in need …
He get justice if not its goin to big mess in USA
We’ve seen this before for years and nothing has change. Nothing will change.
in belize, the police been killing belizeans…… with home invasion and homicide
Sadist, sadism, white supremacy, absolute control, mental sickness.
Yamiche is an excellent reporter, but she does not speak for all African American people. African Americans (are not) fearful of death. But African Americans are extremely disappointed in a government system that fails to protect all of its citizens. African Americans have answered every call to fight in all wars this nation has engaged in; and we did so valiantly. We answered the call. All we ask of America is to have the courage to answer our call. Yes, we do want federal legislation that will create a (national database) of cops and security officers (who carry a gun) who have committed or conspired to commit violent felonious crimes against any United States citizen. This legislation should also include a requirement for every police and security officer in the nation to attend (Deescalation Training) two times per year. These training sessions should be witnessed by at least two impartial citizens (at least one of whom is from the African American community). These citizens should be randomly selected to be witnesses.
Also, we desire nation wide (prison reform). If you have the power to order a prisoner to obey prison rules, then you have the power to (require) prisoners to obtain their GED or if they already have a high school diploma, then they should be required to learn a trade that will equip them to earn a living for themselves and for their families upon their release. If prisoners prefer to take college courses during extended sentences, then the state should be obliged to provide a curriculum that will lead to obtaining a degree (and that will assure that they have the qualifications to obtain full time employment upon their release). A program should be developed that (with extended “good behavior”) would completely expunge a prisoner’s sentence.
In addition to these requests of our government, we desire federal legislation that (requires) states to build new schools in poor communities to replace dilapidated ones; and build community centers within close proximity of the schools. These centers would provide safe havens and after school study spaces for our vulnerable children. We want the schools and community centers that the federal government builds for our children to be randomly monitored / inspected by an independent auditing firm. We also want new legislation drafted that will assure the proper upkeep and funding of all HBCUs. We desire federal funds to be made available for the proper upkeep of said colleges and universities.
This should also include random federal auditing of the (accounting) books as well as inspection of extant infrastructure/buildings on HBCU campuses. Citizens of a nation should never fear their government. On the contrary, we should love our government. But love must be earned. There is no longer a need for the various powerful “Estates” in our great nation to continue exploiting those whom you deem to be members of the proletariat. The aforementioned may be somewhat lofty goals, but so were the goals that permitted us to travel to the moon. We want a government that wants the very best for its citizens…a government that is willing to work on behalf of its citizens. If you think that you fit the bill, then we want you to stay and begin creating laws that equitably benefit all the people of the United States. If you do not believe that you are able or willing to honorably serve all U.S. citizens all the time, then please do everyone a big favor and just go away.
Apologies
This Republic was founded on Genocide and Slavery and thereby creating a Caste System which must be protected by any methods necessary.
Unfortunately, out of this, you consistently give birth to an insane society devoid of mortality and love.
The actions of this Police Force and the in action of legislators prove the point.
so!, as a his Lawyer!, it was the Faulty Brake light!, that drove my Client!, to use reasonable force?, dragging/ Yelling/Spraying/ Punching/ Kicking/ Bashing/ KILLING this AT FAULT DRIVER?, rest my case!.
The only person qualified to speak to what is going on in black communities with these continual beatings and killings of black boys, men, women and girls is Amiche. We don’t want empty words enough keep them to yourselves if you have done nothing to change it!
THE KILLERS ARE OUT ON BOND
SHE HAD NO CHOICE IT WAS CAUGHT ON CITY CAMERA
Seen it all before , how horrific to watch that Law Enforcement is part of it.
Can we talk about why Memphis needed a Scorpion Unit? Let’s ask the Memphis Black community why they choose to commit violent crimes disproportionately.
It’s because Memphis is constantly ranked as the most dangerous city in America. It was number 1 in 2021.
Black community?? Seriously so white community doesn’t commit crime??
@Sherihan Musa Go back to my comment…READ !
Derek Chauvin was fired the next day…arrested four days later. Why didn’t that happen here?
Of course, the Police union -for once- condemns this… it’s because all the cops charged are black. Had they included the white cop that was also tasing Tyre, they wouldn’t be so quick to condemn them.
The chief need to be fired quit giving excuses for that that woman
She has had complaints on them before. I live in Memphis
The unfortunate outcome is certain people in this country are more prepared to act violently against law enforcement. If the persons who hold the power the commit change do not act in changing a broken system in the police force, I would say sooner than later, people in this country will, in all probability take matters into their own hands. It is not a good time to be any police officer, not now not in the future, not in the past as long as unions, Community leaders, Politicians and people in charge allow these kind of actions by the police to continue. Mental health evaluations should be mandatory, reviews on behavior should be common place. What other country in the world has the issues, many different issues that the US has in abundance? Come on, think it through.
Whites will be blamed . Some how some way.
You need better qualified people not just diversity people who are not qualified for the job
The put diversity first instead of qualified people for these job not only are just blacks everyone and we all are mixed people anyway pull back out of it people pierod are scared that this could happen to anyone
Hays dude is a true Republican.
the news media is a joke
END THIS CULTURAL POLICE VIOLENCE!!!! Fire all cops nationwide and hire highly screened officers!!!!!
the only reason this police chief acted was not because of body cams, it was because of the pole mounted skycam that showed this horrific beating from a wider perspective…officers have gotten wise to their own body cam exposure which is why the one officer turned away and pointed his BC AWAY from the beating…we have allowed our police to become militarized through their own self-interest and politics…ANY STATE ENTITY THAT HAS THE POWER TO ARREST YOU AND DENY YOU YOUR LIFE SHOULD BE RESTRAINED AND MONITORED!!!
They really getting on my nerves because video evidence means everything so what they heck is they really saying…. I’m guessing they don’t want just for innocent victims and the police beating has to stop?
Quickly?
Justice 💩
Black culture reform might help your cause as well. They seem to glorify violent thuggish behavior. Rap music is a good example, but there are many. No one wants to talk about it for some reason. I feel bad for cops that have to patrol majority black neighborhoods as it’s exponentially more dangerous.
We’re going to have a revolution. It’s inevitable, because they can’t stop killing us.
What about the communities tired of these pos mutt thugs?
This chief is trying to cover her butt
BREAKING REAL NEWS!!! that nbc will be suppressing. Bidens illegals are refusing to leave the hotels that were housed in NYC. Watch a real news source for more.
she is the one who put that unit on the street and she is also part of the problem, the buck starts and stops with her
A full panel of liberal idiots! Who’s going to address the Elephant In The Room? This was a Black on Black crime! How are the BLM and the Dummycrats going to spin this incident?
ich bin DEAF Deutschland Tourist , Bald nächsten Sommer Urlaub Reise Flüge nach Indianapolis [ IN ] , USA Polizei Überfall Waffen erschossen oder Prügel schlagen zu mir TOD und LEBEN , Ich hatte Angst !
yea those cops deserve 100 years in prison
An interview with a Forensic Psychologist every 3 months would fix a lot of problems within Police & EMS.
That chief knows that she has ignored the complaints of these officer’s behavior in the past. She has been complicit. She still sings the praises of that unit! 💯👌🏾
PoLICE have been Raping, Murdering, and Brutalizing NonWhite ( racially classified as Black) Women, Children, and Men for 173 YEARS. It is a System. And whomever puts on a PoLICE costume is part of that system. Study the history of Policing in the United States.
The police chief is not to be commended. She should be fired
She just did what she was supposed to do
NO NO NO this mob gang should have NEVER EXIST PERIOD
It was so quick…let’s not move to fast, bc it starts at the top n the chief needs to go too! She’s the one that has to show some accountability, bc at this point her hands are very dirty!!
Just talk it’s have to be change now.
There is a will and WAY
Paranoia. Popophoebia is for the weak and ignorant. Chill with all that media hype. Mr. Nichols is dead. Now his soul is in Gods court. Process, charge fire and incarcerate the accused. Next story. The criminals are loving this. Anti-police want the system handcuffed so lawless can reign unimpeded. I’m black and I ain’t never been skeered of the police. I’ve driven nice rides, feel fine, and am totally unfazed. Be afraid of God & Christ who will judge the entire population of fark + light pigmented and dip those unsaved in the lake that burns with🔥😳🔥+ brimstone…
BLack FOLKS HAVE CRIED FOR YEARS ABT POLICE BEATINGS..CCTV CAMERAS PROVE THE TRUTH….IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN…. REMEMBER GEORGE FLOYD…
