Not brutalizing but kind of messed up.
A friend of mine was arrested last week for driving w a suspended license and was in jail for 5 days. He is diabetic and was fed mostly white bread and sugar cookies. Apparently there was no running water for the first 2 days and everyone had to ration bottles. He was really supposed to be in and out in a couple of hours but 'the system was down' and his sign-in paperwork was missing so he spent 5 days.

xp adam that is more than "kind of messed up"! your friend isn't dead or beaten but i would def call that a brutalizing experience to spend 5 days in jail for a suspended license

also as of right now, CNN.com has an alert banner about this but no story; the last thing they published was a short article paraphrasing Tensing's defense 6 days ago
they also have at four concurrent stories on Cecil the lion

classic redirection of anger toward a single white rich guy to stave off total uprising imo

i said this on another thread but cecil the lion is another in a long line of things that people get equally angry about on facebook, like whatever donald trump just said, or charleston, or true detective 2, or ferguson, or conan o'brien losing the tonight show.

(btw lions aren't endangered either fwiw)
yeah but they are classified vulnerable and poaching is still illegal
― balls, Wednesday, 29 July 2015 22:05 (nine years ago) link
in any case i'm not completely sure conservation biology is any more relevant to the debate over police brutality than it is to the debate over abortion just to mention the most high profile case of concern trolling over ppl being outraged over a poaching.

a p. straightforward roundup of recent video-captured police killings, w/ links to associated stories, ongoing coverage, etc.
but it includes a couple i personally hadn't seen being talked about -
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/17/us/killing-in-washington-state-offers-ferguson-moment-for-hispanics.html
police shooting antonio zambrano-montes in pasco, wa (a town somewhat like ferguson, half hispanic but still dominated by an older white power structure), when he clearly had hands up and was cornered by multiple officers, after he threw rocks at the cops. the investigation by the prosecutors found that he was 'likely holding a rock' when he was shot.
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/07/16/us/video-of-2013-police-shooting-of-unarmed-man-renews-familiar-questions.html
gardena, ca police shooting ricardo diaz-zeferino (who died) and eutiquio acevedo mendez (who was wounded), a couple years ago. prosecutors suppressed the video but it was just recently released after a federal court order. the officers suspected the victims of having stolen a bike which actually belonged to a brother of one of the victims, which they themselves were out looking for. one of the victims wasn't keeping his hands in the air and following the (multiple, conflicting) police orders, so they opened fire.
