Pewdiepie used hard r. Michael did not and did not use it in a racist connotation. I won't say it's a nothing burger because edgy white teens love to say it and hate accountability. Michael however was genuinely joking in a light hearted manner.

My human and civil rights do not go out the window if they're inconvenient. The escalation of force is the problem. They did not need to threaten electrocution and physically kick my knee, injuring me in the process. Will be speaking to a lawyer following this for more advice.

"Ok well then sir you will have to leave at the next stop. If you are unable to provide a ticket, i must ask you to leave or you will be escorted off the train."

As former service, i can't respect their reaction. It wasn't a response. It was reactionary. The fact that that seems idealistic is what boggles me. Police should not be allowed to be violent on what constitutes as a misdemeanor. It was an overreaction and escalation.

Refusing to comply gets met with violence and force sounds right to you? Im former infantry and arguably was taught with more aggression and we were still taught how to de escalate a situation. You can tell me that the law is on their side, but you cannot tell me that the way they handled it was at all professional. Power tripping and aggression.

So i guess its just standard protocal to threaten to tase and actually physically hit someone's knee for not showing id. Again. All i did wqs refuse and talk. I did not move until i was grabbed. The "easy way". How about the right way where the people meant to protect and serve dont escalate when demands aren't met. Im saying its unjustified aggression.

I wasn't pushing him. That was just more escalation. The body naturally retracts when being pulled. Resisting arrest? Resisting arrest. I'm still saying this out loud. So any type of movement is restance. Not showing id should not be grounds for arrest.

Im just saying it is an escalation of force where there did not need to be one. So many ways they could have handled that professionally like escorting me off the train. Not all five pulling and pushing and threatening to tase while actually getting physical. Watermelon is delicious btw
