Gosh the US is such a shithole. https://twitter.com/VitalistInt/status/1266311728167608320
Here's the official source from CNN themselves, and also is a thread with the follow-up events (Omar's film crew has since been released): https://twitter.com/CNN/status/1266315061221613569

This is frankly stupid for the police to do; it serves the police no good.
And here's the man himself. https://mobile.twitter.com/OmarJimenez/status/1266365722575265792

Bravo and thanks to all the journalists covering the event from the grounds.
Police not even trying to de-escalate: (NYC Barclays Center) https://twitter.com/meredithbalkus/status/1266564861015834625
Gratuitous use of force, NYC: https://twitter.com/mfstange/status/1266564340381036544

Exactly the same as Hong Kong cops. Gratuitous, un-called for. These smaller but deliberate gestures show the cops' evil more than beatings in messy scrambles.
And this one here: outright aiming weapons to a live-broadcasting camera of a news outlet https://twitter.com/ChrisBishopL1C4/status/1266546753182056453
More of this is showing up. Absolutely gratuitous. This is a sign of the police not fit to police. https://twitter.com/DriveWendys/status/1266555286678048770

美国黑警暴力,也开始罄竹难书了。这条推里的 1, 3, 4 都在本 thread 上面,但是 2 「骑马踏人」的视频我就没见到了。 https://twitter.com/dnvolz/status/1266591226700140550
Actually I've seen the video #1 he's talking about but it isn't in this thread yet; it's this video (QT'd by the victim herself) here: https://twitter.com/zayer_dounya/status/1266553959973445639 https://twitter.com/JasonLemon/status/1266529475757510656
Beyond just the four mentioned, here's more: a white woman, in what seems like collateral damage (???), received a teargas canister into her car. https://twitter.com/ElijahSchaffer/status/1266617539330801666
A story thread about police corruption; up to you if you believe it to be true: https://twitter.com/Infosec_Taylor/status/1266615432779149312
