California has been reducing violent encounters between residents and officers since before the racial justice protests sparked by George Floyd’s murder. It’s a trend with little fanfare.

Try following these orders.

Not following orders isn’t an offense punishable by summary execution in the US. Keep your authoritarian bootlicking attitude away from our country, please.
I am aware that abuses do happen, what I am questioning is the scale. The situation from the video you’ve sent is of course absolutely unacceptable and disciplinary actions shall be taken against that officer as it’s a clear abuse of power.
Also, I am not pro “authoritarian bootlicking attitude”, just believe that it’s better if the police has tools to fight the actual criminals while taking responsibility for power abuses. In US it went too far one way, in Europe it went too far the other way.
There is very rarely any punishment for abuse and often the punishment is a suspension or transfer to a different precinct.
