There is a mentally ill man who stays in the toilets for an hour, the manager calls the police, and when arresting the guy the cops punch him in the back of the head for no reason and beat him to death.

Learns what? That they have the power of life and death at his finger tips? That their little bursts of power hungry arrogance are now even more seductive? The manager is probably thrilled.

Probably thrilled? Did you even watch the video? The manager is probably horrified. She sounded like a normal person who was worried about what someone was doing in a public bathroom for an hour. Like, sure, if you're terminally online you'll say that calling the cops is always a bad idea, but for a low-grade 'manager' (and let's face it, these managers at a fast food restaurant aren't like a manager who's accepting blood money from corporate to make wage slaves of employees, they're basically the $0.25 raised version of an employee who does the time cards and gets all liability dumped on them) who will lose her job if something happens in the restaurant and she didn't call 911.
