angleboot must be slightly stupid. BLACK people dont kill 10 people, they are not the serial killers, you FOOL. WHITES are. Where do you live? What access do you have to daily news and current events? You must be very sheltered, narrow minded, ignorant, and just plain stupid. Maybe someone will taser some brains into you. Its a shame people like you have the internet to hide behind. We ALL know you would never EVER talk this kind of nonsense to ANY person of color or ethnicity face to face.

hope you guys are ready for when the tables turn......sad but true. It will take that to make you people realize that you are of course, no better than the scum on the bottom of my shoe. Disgusting, fat, white pig that could not run after a suspect if his very life depended on it. I think that all decent people should demand that not one penny of their tax dollars be spent on these types of thugs that South Carolina and other places have the audacity to call "troopers".

SURE IT IS. iF IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A WHITE GUY IT WOULD HAVE ENDED UP ON, WORLDS DUMBEST CRIMINALS. But being he is black, it's on the news. And only because of the NAACP. Intentionally run down that I didn't see. Or you must not drive yet.

to angleboot: "intentionally run down that I didn't see" hmm, you see the NAACP but don't see the cop on blast saying, "Yeah I hit him. I was trying to hit him." in big bold, black and white on 0:14 on the clip huh? if i don't drive, you must not read. except of course you do read "black = criminal" huh?

Humm guess you didn't see the guy running from a cop car on the left, then just cut right in front of the cop car. I do read if "ANYONE" runs from the police = criminal. But are dumb enough to think this is the only guy in the USA that has ever been run down by a police car. You do need to go watch more of the ,"Worlds Most Dumbest Criminal"

yo angleboot, a) the cop hit him with his car (fact) b) the cop said he did it on purpose (fact) c) the cop therefore committed a crime (fact) but check-it bra, rather than recognize the obvious and admitted criminal behavior of this cop, you ignore it and criticize civil-rights itself yo. this lack of basic decency is the essence of prejudice & is more dangerous to our society than running from the police. bra, i'm not saying ur racist, i'm saying ur perspective is warped & dangerous
