  • SCOTUS ruled a long time ago that it doesn’t matter if what the cop did was illegal.

    If the cop might have possibly thought it was legal while doing it, like if it could be imagined that maybe the cop thought it was legal, then it’s legal for the cop to do it.

    Quite literally that’s the law of the land in the USA. Until SCOTUS rules that you cannot shoot a woman in the face as a border patrol agent in Minnesota, then maybe just maybe the cop thought he was allowed to do it. And the cop did it which is evidence the cop at least felt it was legal. So even though inevitably it will be ruled illegal because it’s obviously murder, it’s still ok for the cop to do that.

    If anything, capturing evidence that the practice of brutalizing protestors is commonplace would be, in effect, legally exonerating the cops in the eyes of SCOTUS.
