Disturbing

In the early afternoon of September 8, 2005, police encountered Fouad Kaady shortly after he was in an accident that left him in shock and bleeding, burned over much of his body. Rather than calling for medical help, the police commanded him to lie on the pavement, even though they could see the burned flesh hanging from his body, and even though they said he appeared to be "in a catatonic state." When he did not comply with their orders, but instead continued to sit on the ground in a daze, they tasered him repeatedly. And then, they shot him to death.

I watched part 1 and about half of part 2. I had to turn it off. It is too depressing.

They asked him to lay down on the ground when his upper body was all burnt? That is horrible. Is this the first time they have ever seen anyone in shock?

Terrible.

Tavia, the person who made this video went crazy. I sat through three parts and left it because it was so repetitive and drawn out. The whole story could have been made in ONE of the five parts. Whoever made this took away any effectiveness it may have had.
And Neisha, you wouldn’t have had time either. It’s ridiculous.

Before reading these comments, I was going to say the same thing Neisha said: "I'm afraid to click on those links..."

I started to, then realized it was a video, and stopped it.

But, finally I had a look at it, and realized it was just like Carol said, drawn out and lengthy. But the video makes a good point.
