its harder in real life when you see a questionable situation, but you didn't see it from start to finish so you don't really know what's going on just that its something questionable. I am glad people are getting their cell phones out now and at least filming things that go on in the streets.

I guess the "I bet you've never thought to do what he (plural?) did" means show your student ID.

It's a good video with a message about the sad state of affairs in racist America, but it's still a misleading headline.

I finally had to unsub from their alerts. ALL of their headlines are horrible click-bait - they never deliver what was promised. Plus it's always videos and I would really just rather read the story.
