The lack of humanity is what is overwhelming in all these cases. I suspect it's not limited to the police either, and our society seems to have lost sight of all the virtues that were described in the original posting (I suspect it was never really true anyway).
I think things have gotten a little better in terms of transparency, but not so good in what we are seeing. It's like we are now able to turn over that rock and what we see crawling underneath is not so pretty.
In this latest video, anyone who has had elderly relatives that have suffered from dementia will be sickened by it. But it's important to see and acknowledge as it shows how much training is still required. (not just by the Police, but the employees at Walmart, etc)
