The whole thing absolutely fucking sucks.

There are SO MANY conversations that can be had from this, though: profiling, diversion tactics(not releasing the officer's name for SO LONG, and then packaging it with a video of a "robbery"), police militarization, 1st amendment rights being trampled on in all forms, brutality, competence, racism in all different forms... The list goes on and on.

It's a scary fucking deal. Everything about this whole situation is bad.

I'm attending a rally tonight. Hope NYPD keeps calm.
