@sam That was a very gentle touch, here police just smash the man to the ground in front of his kid because he was without a mask

@ruff yah, our cops aren't known for being gentle either normally (unless it's to old white people like in that article). If someone was refusing to do people the simple courtesy of wearing a mask they deserve to be firmly escorted off the premises, but being tackled in front of your kid, that seems pretty extreme.
