If it is private, you need a password. If it is public, you do not need a password--that's how these things work. Your experience was plainly with a PRIVATE account. This guy left his setting PUBLIC.
Again, you don't want to participate in this discussion? Don't. You aren't like a girlfriend, wife or sister of old Tam, and no one is beating you and forcing you to engage in conversation about this topic against your will. No one has a gun to your head or a knife to your throat--you are free to stop conversing, and you know how to trash a thread as well as the next DUer.
It's not a "witch hunt"--the guy is DEAD--and good thing, too, IMO. He killed three members of my community and wounded a hundred and fifty+ others. Forgive me if my first thought isn't to worry about the nonexistent feelings of that murdering, vicious, woman-beating shithead, or his crazy, enabling crime-laced family.
And--one more time--there was no "video." There are photographs of him. How many 20-somethings do you know who wear white loafers and dress like a cross between John Travolta in his disco days and Christopher Walken playing "The Continental?" He looks mobbed up. I don't know any young people in their 20s who dress like that. His 'styling' is purposeful, and it identifies him in a specific way. Not as a "gangster" the way the kids use the word, either. If this guy was mobbed up, he was a capo, not a foot soldier.
