On the Michael Slager trial. Would be interesting to re-enact the video but with a white man running

and getting shot in the back, then get reactions from say 100 white folks. Also show the real video to 100 completely different white folks and see how much the numbers change. If someone had the ability to do it, set up a fake trial based on the same situation with the guy running in the video being say a white teenager and see what the results of the trial would be.

Is someone here capable of doing this and making it look genuine? I am so infuriated he is going to get off!

No double jeopardy problem with a hung jury. And the feds haven't gotten a crack at him yet. Though they may never under a Trump DOJ.
