2. The only redeeming value of the smart phone

being able to record events as eveidence.

This violence has been happening for decades. The advent of the smart

At this point, the existence of rabid racism in our country should be undeniable.

Sad but true.

4. And that took a lot of guts, apparently she was threatened by Chauvin

And she was only 17. She now is plagued by feelings of guilt for not being able to do more, but she was only there because she was taking her little cousin out for a snack - and what she did made all the difference.

5. And the video made his actions plain to his fellow officers.

So they had no choice but to acknowledge it.
