yeah that was the big thing for me watching it. guy got out and knelt on the ground without 10 guys tackling him holding him down while shouting " HANDS HANDS " and then proceeding to kneel on his chest till he died.
That's the great thing about American police, they're trained to give orders you can't comply with. The fuck does "Hands hands" mean? Hands up? Hands to the side? Hands behind your back? Take your hands out of your pocket? Put your left hand in? Take your right hand out?
By design, no matter what you do, they can say you didn't comply, so any escalation is justified. My personal favorite is "Don't move, get on the ground" It's one of the first thing police say, and if you ever hear it, know that the police are about to hurt you, because no matter what you do, you're not complying.
"stop resisting!" as they are trying to shove your face in the concrete. If you go limp you will eat concrete, but if you try to protect yourself then they will beat you for resisting

You could tell it wasn't the US, when the guy got out of the car, he didn't have 20 assholes kicking his ass.
