There's no such thing as police brutality.

By definition, law enforcement officers which are police officers enforce the law. It is an oxymoron that an officer which enforces the law at the same time doesn't.

As far as I know it's a contradiction to what the law is for which is to keep civility and order. Officers protect and serve the people in emergency or police related type matters.

To use the expression "police brutality" is a perpetuated colloquial usage of a phrase. It is a misnomer just like the phrase civil war.

Is anything about a war, killing folks and destruction civil?

Oh it's civil because it is happening in your own backyard. Bloodshed and slaughter is bloodshed and slaughter when you get down to it.

There is no law I know that mandates undue force and or brute force.

Once a police officer acts outside of what is to be enforced, that person is no longer an officer. The person is no longer operating within the law. If you are a Catholic or Christian or Muslim, once you stop practicing what makes you one to belong to any of these sects, you're no longer of.

That's another point. Many people say they are something they're not even practicing to make them that but yet still call themselves that.

You can't be a practitioner without practicing.

So this points us back to the police. People tend to still refer to individuals that don't practice justice as them that enforce justice.

Mr. Neely Fuller Jr. put it this way. A person with the title police officer that acts to mistreat you based on the color of your skin is actually a "race soldier".

Basically a " white " supremacist. That is basically the identification of these "race soldiers", ain't that right?

So it's not a police officer. A person with the title doctor that performs euthanasia or even abortions of all kinds is not a doctor. A doctor in origin is to heal. Not treat with drugs easing the symptoms to live life drugged up or drugged into lethal sleep.

I can yield right here. For more information regarding " race soldier", upon doing a search in the Google search engine, urban dictionary website shows the following:

"Race Soldier

Any white racist who shows an unusually diabolical zeal to engage in the practice of white supremacy; these actions are likely to but do not necessarily include direct violence against black people or people who are not white.

Its likely that race soldiers will violently oppose any civil unrest stems from the police brutality protests

by MrTekKnowledge June 19, 2020"

Don't protest police. This is whom you call to your aid, your defense and protection. Someone posing and impersonating an officer is revealed once we get to exclaiming "police brutality". We see this person is just an imposter.

@Shane.Roy

well yes you're right about this but it always depends on his definition of brutality. But I think it shouldn't be centered only on the US but also in other countries. But definitely yes you're right

I personally think it's good to exchange opinions in a debate, arguments don't always have to be heated conflicts.
The George Floyd incident is a perfect example of present modern day brutality.
In addition to that, Five Memphis police officers beat Tyre Nichols during a traffic stop in 2023. (He died 3 days later).
Aside from these, many other cases of police brutality either don't gain much social traction, or remain private.
From these examples alone, one can conclude that it exists.

yeah it may be difficult but I think it's interesting an opinion exchange on such a difficult topic, what do you think?

This debate may be extremely hard for Pro.
There's many historical cases of police brutality, along with many present cases in more corrupt countries. - That alone breaks his stance that "Police brutality" doesn't exist.
