I still wonder if he would have been found not guilty if he had killed all of the kids in the car?

I just know I saw peoples reaction to the verdict and happy he got time and the first thing that popped in my head was that if he hadn't missed he would've been out free like Zimmerman and thats fucked up. He is only in jail now on a technicality and Florida's firing a gun law (ironically) that they couldn't get around to let him off.
 
Obliterated.

Now I'm always the first one to say there's two sides to every story. Rushing to judgement after only getting one side will oftentimes make you look like an idiot in the end.

In this case though he stated what happened, and she stated the exact same thing. He started his vehicle and the kids got scared and she went crazy.

Yeah I really enjoyed reading this thread. Specifically because we have video of the event, the video recorder telling us what happened followed by the lady CONFIRMING what happened in her own words IN the video and still you have that small sect of people rushing in claiming 'we don't have enough information'. Its been pretty clear what the motivation is behind the folks that play that card, but its nice to see it so thoroughly obvious in this issue here.
 
That man has incredible patience and self-control to have remained so calm and cool while facing a torrent of abuse and ignorance like that.

I can't even begin to imagine how it must feel to be on the receiving end of something like that.

I can tell you when it's like that, you're more in disbelief that someone is being so blatant than you are angry or offended.
 
Didn't even hear of that.

Racism in the United States is such a mess, feels hopeless.

It really is sad how little progress we have made here in the States. After sharing the story of how my car was stolen last week with my co-workers most of them responded with was it a Mexican.
 
"By starting my cur"

Buddy In The Car: It's ok buddy.

Racist Lady: I don't like black people.

Buddy In The Car: Oh that's good.

I gotta admit the guy is kinda funny. The camera may have been a bit passive aggressive, but he was pretty chill otherwise lol.
 
No, it wouldn't. There are aspects of religion that are open to criticism, just like there are aspects of my philosophy that are open to criticism.

Of course you can say that the corruption, the sexual assaults, ... are open to "criticism" but that doesn't make it okay to generalize it and use the religion as an insult for a individual person who has nothing to do with that.

I am white. There are a white people who commit crimes - so now my "race" (hate that word by the way) is open to criticism? Same goes for sexual orientation, your core believes, ...

This is exactly what I meant - why should be a racist insult be worse than a insult of your sexual orientation? In both cases you did nothing wrong and it is not something you can change.
 
anti-semitism, or calling all muslims terrorists etc. i think that's just as bad as this.

That's really just racism in disguise. However, religion as a theory or concept is certainly open to criticism. As a gay man I believe it to be the key component to widespread homophobia.

But that is neither here nor there.
 
You know, by now I feel like I should stop being surprised every time I see a racism apologist here on NeoGAF, but it still makes me raise my eyebrow. I hope she was worth it for you, friend.

That aside, this is the exact reason why anyone and everyone should have a smartphone. What a nut. She was attempting to provoke him to violence, and he didn't take the bait. Good on him.
 
To be fair, we don't have all sides..what did the kids have to say? She's a friend to many in law enforcement..what do they think of her character? What's Ja's take on the matter? These are fair and important questions..
 
I'm not sure you know what the average canadian citizen sounds like.

She.... sounded crazy.

Source: I being Canadian. Whose worked with nearly every demographic of a Canadian from East to West.

uh i'm canadian too dawg. and i'm talking about how the guy saying "start the CUR" sounded like he was in trailer park boys.
 
Please I hope this blows up. Please I hope this reaches the news and she is identified. Please, please pleasse. Lost job, public shaming, the works.

Well, if what she said she did with cops is what she does, I doubt she will lose her job over it. Doesn't exactly sound prestigious.
 
Ugh, no? That is how people end up getting physically hurt.
I'm not demanding vigilante justice here. But her entire neighborhood has the right to know her true colors so they can take safety measures against such an unstable woman. Her workplace should also know so they can decide if they want someone like her is representing their company. This better go viral.
 
Imagine if the cops showed up, and they were black.

Feel bad for the dude, but he handled it perfectly. Don't get upset. Be the better person. Shame the racists by showing they're the crazy ones.

And I'm not her defender or apologist, but potentially having physical violence done to her because this goes viral is not the answer. I guess I just do not seem the point of it. I would wager her co-workers, friends, and family know her true colors. I haven't seen such a blatant display of racism like that among my own family...and I have some racist family members.
 
The guy did the right thing, kept it calm and got himself a video record.

I've no problem with him publishing it. You can't expect privacy in a public place when you are acting like a criminal asshole.

I do have a problem with the internet mob that will surely form around this, vigilante harassment does no one any good.

If I was him I'd bring charges.
