He wasn't cowardly, he is culturally brainwashed. Black skin equals evil dangerous person about to riot. This requires maximum force and if the rioting gangbanger group of hoodlums doesn't behave, a bullet or two.
White teenager who abuses sister That's a confused child who needs a quiet sit down with some talking. Black teenager with a bikini who is sitting on the ground, needs to be told to get her ass on the ground, then get her hair pulled, the knelt on. At least no one got shot, no cop could claim that he thought someone was reaching for a gun hiding in a bathing suit. But I don't think he is a coward. In his own mind seeing all those dark bodies actually triggered his subconscious to react the way he did. That video is the exact definition of cultural racism.

But it’s impossible not to wonder how different a scene this would have been if these kids had been white instead of black. Would Casebolt have dared to drag a blond-haired, blue-eyed girl to the ground screaming “ON YOUR FACE!” at a pool in an affluent suburb?
If your answer is yes, let me know the next time that happens.
