You might not be so eager to let anything that can be captured be captured.

The video I saw of the cop pepper spraying those kids just showed him walking up and spraying them in the face. The headline read something along the lines of "Police officer nonchalantly sprays students with pepper spray". Nowhere in the video nor in the article does it tell you the other methods that were first attempted or that they were warned well in advance before they were sprayed. Sounded fishy to me so I went looking for more details and surprise surprise there they were. I guess the guy writing the article couldn’t spell google. Now for the "f the cops” crowd context doesn't matter and all they need is to be pointed at which cop to hate, anything else is details. But for those of who actually think such blatant manipulation of the facts is not journalism and we would prefer to make our own judgments instead of having some peel our head back and poor some thoughts in there for us. Not a case for libel since lie by omission is almost ever grounds for libel. Too late for the cop though he has already been sentenced by 2 million of his peers on youtube. He probably has to pick his kids up from school to keep them from getting beat up on the bus.
