Of course not. But the story as reported seems to show an unhappy black guy getting hassled by cops and getting pissed about it. - TWuG Jul 22, 18:53 5
- Another story I'm reading indicates that he followed the police out of the house still yelling. - Stephen Jul 22, 19:03 4
  - by witness accounts there were at least four police on his porch, and six or seven police cars in the street. that's not exactly deescalation. -- nm - mafic Jul 22, 19:06 3
    - But when did they arrive? - Stephen Jul 22, 19:08 2
      - seven cars is overkill for a middle-of-the-day, possible B&E. -- nm - mafic Jul 22, 19:26 1
        
        AND overkill for one guy being arrested for Disorderly Conduct. Since he didn't throw punches - TWuG Jul 22, 19:29
