About that police brutality indeed… Here’s a member of the NYPD caught on camera boasting about how he’s going to beat protesters. He actually says, “My little nightstick’s going to get a workout tonight!” The officer then strikes the ground with his baton.

For more on tonight’s police brutality committed by the NYPD, click here.

Male officer: My little nightstick’s going to get a workout tonight, hopefully.
Female officer: I haven’t used it.
Male officer: I have. Several times.

Just. Wow.
