A felon, fighting cops, with a gun on him?  Convicted sex offender (sex with a minor older than 13)?  Behind $25 large in child support?

Not the last two are reasons to end a life, but the first one can get you there.  Yeah, the video is hard core, no doubt.  It's also not all that clear what's going on and I'm not saying he deserved it, but a felon, fighting cops with a gun on him is going to lead to bad places for the felon more often than not.

Nice job making sure everybody knows that Sterling was a scumbag.  That's the main point here, right?  And for highlighting (twice) that he had a gun on him (never mind that it was in his pocket, not his hands), as if to say, "welp *shrug* there was nothing they could do!"

I've already seen some Facebook Knuckledraggers explain the Minneapolis case away with "the cop was some kind of Oriental, not white, therefore no racism!!"
