Comparing Oscar Grant.

This happens on the subway in New York. The profanity, the derogatory, the racism, the abandonment of clothing, the curses, and not until the individual leaves, attempts to engage, pursues and vandalizes a retreating woman, challenges the community, does any physical restraint occur. (And when it finally does, it is the people who act. One lowly officer sheepishly stepping just ahead of them)

And then the inverse of the situation, the negative exposed. A previous moment in time, which anachronistically places this as predicate (4:40). A scene where restraint was already in place, the community at bay, the numbers trippled, and yet, based on intonations of skin, still, not quite enough.

Oh, the raw and brutal power of an explanation point. The true and downward slope of things!
