I'm white and not only do I completely understand the outrage, I'm outraged as well. Not just over this situation, but also, perhaps even more so, over the John Crawford murder in Ohio, which for some reason is getting nearly no coverage. For anyone who is unaware of the situation, John Crawford was a 21 year old black "man" (I put man in quotes because 21 is still basically a kid to me), who was killed on August 5th in Walmart for carrying a bb gun that they sold in that very Walmart. Cops told him to put the bb gun down, he told them it's only a toy, and they proceeded to shoot and kill him, absolutely disgusting. It's incredible.
Racism certainly still exists, I just want people to realize that not all white people are racist, and not all white people are unaware of white privilege and the disparity of opportunity between whites and blacks in this country. I also hope people realize that there are many white people who are underprivileged who would have a very hard time finding a job, going to college, etc. This is more a rich vs. poor thing than it is a white vs. black thing. PLEASE understand I am not making light of the black community's struggles and oppression in this country, just hoping to help unite the people who need to unite. The middle and lower classes of all colors need to come together and take a stand against the MEGA rich, and let them know that we will no longer tolerate the oppression, the militarization of our police forces, etc. We need to link up with the police officers that recognize how our government is taking away our constitutional rights, the ones who aren't racist savages, we need to realize we're all American citizens and have much more in common than we realize.
I'm an Italian from South Philly, racism is still very much alive in my neighborhood, but mainly amongst the older crowd, and even there it is not a true hatred. I see the younger generation all the time playing basketball together, hanging out at the local playground, whites, blacks, all races, it's a beautiful thing. We need to starve the system that bleeds us. Boycott the corporate structure that controls our government, and oppresses people of all races in the lower classes. The people in power and the mega rich love to see us divided and therefore conquered, they love to see us looting, rioting, etc. Which most of the time is done in our very own communities and only hurts people just like us, and gives our government a reason to send in savage cops, the National Guard, declare Martial law, etc. The thing they fear the most is a peaceful united populace of all races working together to take back our country, leaving behind the traditions of racism, and building something new, a true meritocracy where people of every race have the same opportunities based on their ability and willingness to work. I know this might sound like some corny popcorn utopia, but it is possible.
but that's just my opinion. I hate thieves.
@ anything the owner says being relevant he is obviously shook as sh*t. . People watch the video and form an opinion for themselves, and based on that video alone, "thug" IMO isn't a reach. 
or is there some other confirmed hard evidenced I am unaware of?
labeling him a thug = he deserves to be gunned down to you guys.....
That clears up a lot.
My bad then.
