(62,325 posts)where people questioned whether or not a cop could actually behave that way. And in every case, when the video surfaced, sadly, there was no question. This movement was very smart to make sure that everyone there who could, had a camera. Had they not had the forethought to do that from the beginning, so many incidents like this would have been blamed on the protesters. Which is why the cops tried to make it illegal last week, to photograph them.
And two people would maybe have gone to jail last week, because of being falsely arrested and because the cops blatantly lied under oath, had there not been video, some of it filmed by Tim Pool. Those cases were dismissed and innocent people were exonerated. Imagine if there had been no video.
And in Chicago, for the first time, Tim Pool was arrested, just days after his video exposed the lying cops.
