Watching the first video where they approach the vehicle for the traffic stop...

Seriously, first thing they do is drag him out of the car? Why? What reason did they do that?

He is on the ground asking why? He is trying to make eye contact, not resist. He is confused by the aggressive nature of these cops. Listen to the initial dialogue. He wants to know what he has done to be treated that way. And then they taser him for ‘not complying?’

A cop roughs me up for a traffic stop, I want to know why too. Normal reaction. We need to stop confusing normal reactions with resisting.

Exactly. “Fight or Flight” is human nature. But then there may be the added factor of possible drugs in the system (that will come out in court).

What I saw, thus far, was just plain brutal.

I worked with this young man and he was flat out murdered by police. I would run too if attacked like him.
