Perhaps it's just me, but i have no problem drawing definitive conclusions based on reasonably clear color video. If you had to convict someone based on a typical security camera video or still image you would have nowhere near as much definitive proof to go by, but DA's and Juries put Americans in jail every day with just such evidence.
Moving color video captured from several angles by several eyewitnesses? Pffft, that's good as gold, you cannot get more damning evidence short of a signed confession. I've seen all i need to see. If it was me in that video, i'd be just as guilty as the cop is...

But you do tolerate 'citizen hating street justice' or 'utterly incompetent policing' as meted out every day by cops all across the country?
Most interesting.
Guess what bro, in my idea of a civilized society cops (many of whom are blatant racists) don't blast restrained, non-resisting Americans in the back with high velocity pistol fire. Not ever. And when they do, they go to prison for the rest of their natural days for it...
Call me crazy
PS: No, i don't think you're a douche. Generally speaking, you seem like a rather nice, and quite astute fella. Just not now.
