    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.
