Such courage on Clayton’s part .. and such despicable behaviour on the part of the police officers. Handcuffing and no food or water!! Or gloves! And stuffing into a small place. Sadism, the wish to hurt and punish, all re-enacted in a group under the guise of “upholding the law”.
Ever read “Lord of the Flies” by William Holden which describes how human dignity and civility breaks down quite quickly when the normal societal rules are removed.. and Freud talked about the individual’s conscience often fails once group dynamics take over.
A number of our law enforcers are great big cowards unable to maintain any moral compass. Those who have any level of conscience and are not complete psychopaths are probably on long-term leave with what they now call PTSD, but is often actually the struggle with their own internal conflicts! People can fall apart when they don’t live in accordance with their conscience.
Clayton is a hero and has made a huge sacrifice on behalf of all of us!
Will we see justice?
The wheel of life keeps turning. I choose to remain hopeful. But it’s difficult some days.
