Who is saying that police brutality is justified? The officers have been charged with a crime and will stand trial.
What else would you like to see happen?
The actions of a few bad apples in our police force are not a reason to change and entire system.
Incidents of police brutality are few and far between. Incidents of the police killing someone while arresting them are ever more rare. Yet there are some that want to use this for political purposes and benefit from all of the publicity, protests and demonstrations.
The thing is that in six months this will all have blown over, the protests, riots and demonstrations will end and it will be a footnote in history.
