I don't think Tyreek was treated unfairly.
I do think the cop didn't need to be so rough, and I don't think putting Calais in cuffs was necessary.
The cops could be retrained.
But they didn't violate anyone's rights.

I love Calais, but putting him in cuffs was necessary. They don’t know who he is or what his intentions are. You don’t walk up on a police altercation and try to insert yourself into it. The police don’t know if you’re a good guy trying to help, or a bad guy trying to hurt.

Calais had to be detained once he approached. Like Bchbunnie4 said, if the cop has their back to a huge man that they don't know and don't know their intentions, the cop couldn't protect Tyreek or himself. If they don't cuff him, the situation could end in a shooting.

Cops are now trained to cuff everyone when they don't know who is who, they are out numbered or physically disadvantaged, don't know if someone may be a threat, etc. Once they figure it out, they will let you go or arrest you. A lot of it is for safety and legal protection.

The cop did everything by the book, so there isn't anything to retrain on. The leadership may yell at him for causing them all these problems.
