Following this deadly disaster protests ensued. In this image, one of the protesters - who lost a relative in the mining accident, is being restrained by the parliamentary police - while being assaulted by Yusuf Yerkel, an aide to Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
One of the most valuable and true observations describing human behavioral psychology states, "Rationalization is THE great human sport." (S.King)
It is much easier (and almost necessary) in order to hurt another person (physically or otherwise) once a person has negative emotions directed towards them. And although they are of lower resolution - we can see in these images the primary expression of disgust on Yerkel's face. His secondary (minor) emotion is anger.
Yerkel "needed" to feel disgust in order to kick and assault this protestor.
