While it shouldn’t happen to anyone, welcome to something non whites don’t have to attempt an insurrection to receive.

While I feel no remorse for this idiot, abuse by corrections officers is a serious crime and needs to be investigated and prosecuted.

Those “blue” lives matter only as long as those, in blue, oppress people of color.

He just got a teeny-tiny taste of what it’s like to NOT have White privilege shielding his ass for once.
That said, it doesn’t make the abuse by the corrections officer acceptable or “okay” by any means, obvs.

I’m not crying, you’re… ok, neither of us are crying. I’m guessing when these insurrectionists go up the river they’re not going to have it easy in the big house.
depends how serious Merrick Garland is about prison reform.
Assuming we can trust the word of a terrorist insurrectionist as to the source of alleged injuries, i am willing to say the guards should not do that.
Also, I feel the appropriate amount of sorrow on his behalf.

This should be investigated thoroughly and anyone involved should be locked up as needed. Any correction officer comfortable doing this probably beats other prisoners as well. That being said, I won’t exactly be shedding any tears over this particular instance.

The guards were just following Trump’s instructions on how to treat prisoners.
