We're the Only Ones "We've Got the Beat" Enough

Holloway appears to comply, but Rios jumps out and begins hitting him with his fists and a baton. [More]
Let the "Only One" apologies begin.

We didn't see the whole tape.

We didn't hear what he said.

Just a few bad apples do not spoil the whole barrel.

Hey, if he'd listened this wouldn't have happened. He's lucky they didn't shoot his ass.

It does kind of let us know why some don't particularly want us to have cameras. Or guns. Some day, those animals who perpetrate official brutality, and those who stand by and condone it, may feel very, very alone.

That is EXACTLY what happened at a Gun Forum, TN Gun Owners. Even the administrator classified it as bashing, and the apologists flocked from the woodwork with those EXACT excuses.

Oh, now come on! It must have been the right thing to do! It was COP what done it!

Jeez, why don't all you peasants just go back to sleep?

How dare you question your betters!?

I hope Rios doesn't get fired or put in jail. No, seriously, I really hope that. If either happens how on earth will he be found when the American has decided he has had enough?
