  1. I'm amazed to see this on an American TV channel….. it doesn't really fit the narrative they're trying to push.

  2. As a black man I feel it's time to fight back the fact that the cops are black don't make it better see the cops that are black are fired but not the white cops funny you white devils don't want to see facts remember this truth evil will not survive God soon the war will come can't wait I'm ready black people my black people let's stand together now and fight against anyone that don't want equality

  3. PS YOUR WORST PEOPLE IS YOUR OWN PEOPLE.

  4. These self-hating Black cops worked for Satan himself. and up until now, have been rewarded for it . Satan rewards those who do his dealing.

  5. pigs are animals plain and simple

  6. i hope the pigs become human pin cushions in prison

  7. Has anyone notice the police officers in this case were all black.So sad

  8. That this happened at the Hand of all bla k police officers is truly heart wrenching

  9. All 5 cops should receive the death PENALTY and I don't believe in it

  10. We were all humans until Race disconnected us, Religion separated us, Politics divided us and Wealth classified us!! 😔

  11. He is no human piñata ! How dare u call him a human piñata it’s a tough way to put it seriously, Memphis is a toxic city, acknowledge they are BLACK COPS beating a BLACK MAN it’s the black community has a lot of violence stems from the music

    The Devil was originally glimmer in jewels and had music pipes coming out of him

    Brainwashed Rappers are the personification of the boisterous devil

    Get right with Jesus Christ

  12. It's really bad when this distinguish man

    with

    the light-colored striped lavender- necktie

    says that Mr Nicholls was a human pinata for these 5 police officers who recently have been fired

    There's no doubt they actually saw the video and know how bad it is

    All these officers will eventually be indicted for murder

  13. Tyre Nichols asked the police while being beaten: What did i do, what did i do?

    – Nothing. You just was on our way…

  14. It's not enough to be fired or arrested but convicted is another matter.
    This was handled very poorly by the cops.

  15. Maybe we can start to see the issue for what it is.
    This is an issue with authority, and being responsible with it.
    It's an issue of hurt egos that HAVE to retaliate and "get theirs."

  16. we need more officers like these; they got rid of a threat to society

  17. Nice job officers! Do what your told. No it was nothing like Rodney king! We are here to demand $$$$$$$justice. He was a PUNK
