"Journalism" = Incurable Evil
KREM, the most irresponsible and constantly wrong of the local media, is following the old evil Rodney King recipe for starting a riot.
Compare the text and the tape. The text describes a small incident at the STA terminal. One man is hassling another man. The security guard stops the hassler from boarding the bus along with the hasslee. The hassler then tries to pull the guard's hand away. At that point the guards move in and subdue the hassler.
In other words, it's a perfectly rational and proper police action, attempting to protect the public from a man who insists on being vicious.
The video, in true Rodney style, starts at the moment when the guards move in on the hassler. We don't get to see why the guards felt the need to move in.
Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame. ¶ 4:04 AM
