Deaf Man Who Couldn't Hear Police Commands Was Tased and Spent 4 Months in Jail
I don't want the following to come off as judgemental or to imply that I have anything but the utmost empathy for everyone involved in this case.I think it's interesting to consider these types of articles that get popular online. It seems perfect for creating outrage, but for what? If the purpose of the news is to inform, what does this news inform me of? What am I to do except get angry and ruminate and forget and repeat for the next story? I don't want to seem like the archetypal angry cynic that so often appears in these comment sections, but this is genuinely the reason I stopped paying attention to most of the news. I'm not sure what else to add here. I just think about this a lot.
