Aid was provided quickly and let's hope he recovers. If the man had something like catasrophic bleeding then for sure they would've instantly tried to stop it because every second matters. As much as moving the man's head in this case could've just resulted in further damage. |
In the end it would not have gone viral as much as it did if it didn't look like general display of apathy. Scenes like pictured there only fuel further protests. No, they should not have moved him, they should at least have immediately knelt down beside him and shielded him while calling for a medic or ambulance.
It looks like, oh well he fell and is bleeding out of his ear, but we have better things to do atm. Could you just move on after you pushed someone who falls down like that, intentional or not?
All it looks like is, we can be brutal against anyone, not just black people.
In the end it rests on the shoulders of the supervisors putting untrained people into situations like these.

Ah some balls to stand up against situations like this, oh wait
"Fifty-seven resigned in disgust because of the treatment of two of their members, who were simply executing orders," Buffalo Police Benevolent Association president John Evans told WGRZ on Friday. WKBW also reported news of the resignations.
What the actual fuck. Oh they plead not guilty of course.
The man that got pushed:
