I watched some of the video from what I guess was the helicopter this morning. Some of the commentary was just ridiculous especially in light of the outcome. "That looks like a bad dude, too." Or some such nonsense. A big black guy with his hands up walking passively to his vehicle at gunpoint/taserpoint. A bad dude. Based on what? I can't see what, if anything, he does to warrant the taser, the gunshot, but I definitely didnt see anything to warrant being labeled "a bad dude". I think this attitude is maybe what people like Kapernickus are talking about.
