On the Monday, June 8 segment of The Daily Show, comedian and host Trevor Noah took some time to shed light on the police brutality and violence directed towards protestors during the global outcry of demonstrations following the police killing of George Floyd.
Comparing the protests to the 1960s civil rights movement as well as disapproving the use of military-style force to police protestors, Noah’s comments show that he is in disbelief.
"It's bad enough that these cops push an old man who's walking over to them, but the fact that they walk over him, they walk past him while he's bleeding out on the sidewalk.
"Not only did the police department try to cover up what happened, not only did they try to lie about something that we all saw on camera, but once the truth got out and the cops were punished, the entire team resigned to protest those police being held accountable," Noah explained.
If good police are willing to look the other way or even join in when the bad police abuse their powers, you can make new rules and regulations all you want.
