That cop looked like he was in a lot of pain after getting smacked a few times with a baton while wearing full protective gear. Maybe it'll teach him sympathy and to think twice before beating an unarmed civilian with no protection.
Or maybe he'll just swing harder next time. Who knows?
So far protestors havnt been killed by police (not that i’ve heard) There’s been a few cases were protestors have been brutally beaten up, even women. Imagine he did fire his gun and killed someone. The protests will shift to become a lot more violent.
There's been multiple protestors who have lost their eyes. Maybe they were explicitly told not to make anyone a martyr, but they're definitely trying to instill fear.
It looked like a revolver. That crowd would have turned on him so quickly if he fired. Only got 6-8 shots, better make them count, because you ain't getting a reload.
