    Video 2 has the main beating starting at about 2min in. after they drag him over by the car, you can watch him lay by the car for another 20-25 minutes after that handcuffed with no medical attention. I would say that on it's own tells 75% of the story and would be enough to convict on its own. The other three videos are just context.

        Hope that helps make sense of things, let me know if you still see it differently, and be sure to take a break comrade

          I've watched 2 through the beating and it's still shorter/less graphic than I thought it would be given the state's preparation for protests. George Floyd was watching a man be strangled for 8 minutes and 46 seconds and this was declared much worse in the lead-up to its release. Still a horrific murder, but I guess I was expecting something even more gratuitous than just severely beating him with a baton for no reason. I can't tell if my barometer for public shock factor is broken after so many similar videos.

              It's horrific on its own. I've just never seen such a national effort to mobilise a response to a police murder.

                :cool-zone: scared them in a new way and they really don't want people to take any lessons from it
