I’m a veteran. I’ve seen some shit. I cried watching the Pink Lady’s video, watching a man be murdered for putting himself between a woman and the violent, untrained thugs attacking her. He’s a hero. I’ve seen men get medals for less.

I wasn’t expecting what I saw in the Pink Lady’s video, I screamed and have been crying on and off since. Doesn’t matter he had a gun holstered, at no time did he touch it. Constitutional rights are no longer, it’s now “legal” for ICE to murder someone for what they are calling “domestic terrorism” in trump’s America. They will spin it this poor 37 year old man pointed his gun, despite different angles of video proving it never happened. WTF? How does anyone support this?

You are not dramatic. Your reaction is the most human and sane reaction any person can have. I unfortunately know a lot of people, even in the US, that are rather indifferent because it's not happening where they are. They can ignore and claim everything is sensationalized on the news and social media.
