Have you been beaten with a baton?
Are batons swords?
I see 1 baton hit in the entire video. There was a second cop with a baton out, presumably for another hit. Let's say 2 then.
Batons are pretty common in crowd control scenarios. Usually cops don't hold back and just start swinging left and right.
2 baton hits are not nearly on the same level as executing them.
Seems disingenuous to start writing comments without even searching for more information.

Also they hit them 2 so it's ok is the dumbest argument ever.
Yes. Seeing more posts, it is absolutely disproportional. And there are some videos where they absolutely maul them for basically nothing.
I commented on the post I commented on though, which has very little police violence (compared to the other ones).
