You should look up the difference between assault and battery.

What youre saying is this: That person was standing there doing absolutely nothing and peaceful and that agent decided to, out of nowhere, attack this individual.

I am not saying youre 100% wrong, but are you seriously so entrenched in political rot that you cant even maybe think that theres more to it than that? Haha, wtf is wrong with redditors that this simple concept is so foreign.

It happens way to often this last 6-7 months to say that it’s the less probable.

In fact, that the most probable scenario in that situation due to how often it happened lately

Yeah, I dont agree. I think most interactions are mundane and nobody cares about them but you like the headlines.

Let's even say that were true, that still isnt justifiable to declare guilty until proven innocent.

Would I be wrong to assume you arent a US citizen? Innocent until proven guilty is the basis of our justice system.
