6. I'll tell you how stupid I am.

I have been following this case. And I actually thought there was a chance this cop would be charged.

The poor man just reached into his car. Maybe he was going for his cell phone. Maybe he was going for his drivers licence. He sure wasn't going for a gun. Because there was no gun. But I guess that now "reaching" is a capital offence.

And does it matter that Mr. Crutcher was black? I think it does. After all, the cop probably assumed he was a gang member, and he was reaching for a machine gun.

This whole thing makes me sick.
