Why authority needs to be brought under control

by
https://youtube.com/watch?v=NcFoi1q9Cf4

Not to imply all police is like that or the law is always evil, but definitely gonna forward this as a textbook example of what happens when you give authority and those enforcing it too much power by design. Enjoy your "perfect" society America, the happy film where the good guys are always right and always win... yep, that definitely looks like good guys in a world where we're kept safe thanks to the grace and wisdom of its rulers. Hope I may soon witness humanity either getting its shit straight or wiping itself out of existence... fine with either option at this stage, just please pick one already since the waiting's what's killing me.

(in case Youtube later deletes the video to protect our feelings from our inability to click the close button, look up George Floyd)

am i supposed to say something about jumping to conclusions?
because i'm more confused than anything else

the only reason i say this is we DON'T know the full story. So i'm only asking why is it that people feel the need to hate on people going about their jobs, and to clarify i'm NOT taking sides, i'm just confused about this whole thing.

The full story behind what happened isn't known yeah. The footage does show a harmless man being suffocated and soon dying, by police who at very best are completely ignorant. Should be noted that footage from a restaurant showed what happened prior to that, he doesn't seem to be opposing resistance at any point. Allegedly they picked on him because he looked like a forgery suspect, they were looking for someone else but not even for a violent crime. This has gone so viral even television in my country aired it though, that's actually how I found out by accident.

It happens. It's going viral now thankfully: There are protests everywhere about what happened. Maybe this will finally be the tipping point and end those cases of police violence.

while i agree that something has to be done and that justice must be served, burning down any random building ISN'T justice, i mean sure they got the government building but they also trashed and burned other's livelihood, not to mention looting other people's home who are just bystanders, if you ask me the message was sent when they burnt the target building, then lost it when they targeted non government buildings.
