I should have done my own background reading/researching beyond simply viewing the video. It just seems lately that whenever police come on the scene, they escalate matters and provoke violence to then justify their lethal violence. There is a real discrepancy in how people are treated (black versus white for sure), but I have come to fear police. With new stories appearing almost daily, they appear to be out of control, using that blue line and their authority to bully and kill.
