Its not right but we cant blame her for being upset can we??
Of course not.
But don't yell racial slurs at the reporter. What good does that do?
Otherwise, of course I can't blame a mom for being distraught after losing her son.

I don't know what her son did, and I'm not so quick to take the cop's word for it.
Grace under fire. Woman just lost her son, no excuse for her racist rant and had the reporter retaliated imagine the backlash she would have received for being insensitive. I see black people on the news all the time who have witnessed the murder of loved ones and in the midst of their grief they do not go off in a rage calling the reporter(s)/crew derogatory names and slurs and resorting to physical violence. I'm sorry but she does not get a pass.

Yes, that was amazing. They went through all the stages of grief in less than 24 hours. Hard to believe.
This incident could have been staged, with the repeal of the Smith Mundt Act in 2012 the media is allowed to use propaganda now.
The media is doing their best to promote racial divide.
I guess a lack of critical thinking skills and believing everything you see on the news as real makes it easier.
No one is promoting a racial divide. People are highlighting what exist in this country already. Its the blind that want to pretend we are living in racial harmony. I would love to live in a space where we didnt have prejudice and racial hangups. Unfortunately we do. Also some of the family members spoke out the next day in interviews and said they forgave Dylan. Plenty of african american women whos kids have been shot by cops never went on those kinda rants. This women always felt this way and probably has used this language before. No EXCUSES
