It's okay because it's pretty much a guarantee that these 'youths' are going to be shot by law enforcement within 24 months.

I'm not going to watch the video.
Is it bad that I'm assuming the shits in it are not Mexican, Asian or white?

I'm pretty sure the education system is training kids to believe that everyone around them is an asshole...essentially training them to hate people. It's typical of young liberals to be very trusting of politicians, "syrian" "immigrants", and people they never meet but they people around them might as well be literal shit as far as they're concerned.
There's a famous psychological experiment called the Milgram experiment. I think it was even re-done a few years ago. The videos are pretty much the dumbest goddamned things I've ever seen and basically show the few participants who fit the narrative they wanted to show only barely demonstrating the supposed outcome. I've had these videos shown to me in high school and two colleges. It was a pretty core part of soph/jr undergrad psych and ethics classes.
Essentially, they tell one person to administer shocks to another person and see if they do it. It's supposed proof that people are assholes and was accompanied by lectures (discussions in some cases) on Nazis and empathy.
Not buying it. People may be shit but they generally don't hurt other people for no good reason. Only anecdotal evidence I guess but it's something I've begun to consider.
Edit: I wonder if videos like this actually encourage the view that people are dicks. Maybe there's more to the story.

The Milgram experiment showed that people will continue to "harm" others when they have no liability/responsibility in the situation. The participants were assured they were not liable and that the other person understood the risks. If anything it highlighted the trust people had in academics, believing they would be not put in a position where they would truly be harming another individual.
It's noteworthy to remember that most high-trust leftists live in the most homogenous areas. This trust is based on the fact they don't have opportunity to be a victim or see the fruits of what importing third world fanatics bring.
With the dindunuffins in the video it probably would not make any difference if they felt responsible. Hood culture creates the worst possible bystander effect as one sociopath among them triggered others to not call for help.

Instead of being heroes, they just laughed and watched. Imagine if one of those teens were your son -- how would you handle it? After I finished beating his ass, he would be out my house! Fuckin cowards.

Retarded enough to cover yourself head-to-toe in tats apparently(not visible in the photo used in the news cast due to lighting). My experience has proven that people with face tattoos always live at the intersection of Batshit Crazy Street and Perpetually Unemployable Avenue. Not that that justifies the teens laughing at his death.

I'd bet anyone a gold membership that he was one on(that is high) when he went into the pond. Or suicidal and pussied out once he was in too deep.
Also the guy is 6'5 and I'd bet around 190-200lbs. I would've drowned too if I jumped in to help. Best thing would've been to call 911.

Some of you guys are making the mistake of taking your normal brains and placing them into the heads of the scum laughing in the video.
They won't be haunted by this later, you would be, but you wouldn't make this video in the first place.
Their fathers won't be disappointed in them because their fathers aren't around, and this won't show up when their future employers do a search for their names because they won't ever have employers.

Not sure about the US but a man got charged for not helping over a drowning here recently. I think he was with his girlfriend, they were walking by the sea and she jumped in, swam for a bit then realised she was out of her depth. She asked him to help her but he either (can't remember the full details) watched her drown or simply walked off. He was standing about 5 yards from one of those emergency floating things you can throw to people in the water to help them float, but he never gave it to her.

^ A guy in my area made the local news a few years ago for pulling a drowning deer from a lake and giving it mouth to mouth.

Regardless of whether or not he was worthy of being saved, I still feel a chill thinking of kids standing by idly and laughing at his death. We're headed for some dark times.
Let's not get too judgemental on this dude. Sure, he could have been a loser on drugs who got dumb, but doesn't he at least deserve the courtesy of a 911 call and a rope thrown into the water?
I am usually pretty optimistic about the younger generation of black kids coming up but this was a shame. I have siblings around that age and I hope they wouldn't do something like this.
The fact that they were laughing almost makes me think they're brains were so broken that they didn't realize how fucked up it was. The nice part of me wants to think that. The better part of me knows they knew this was fucked up and did it anyway. Either way, dark times, guys.
I will be checking my PMs weekly, so you can catch me there. I will not be posting.

Standing there laughing at him was wrong. What if they knew or were aware that he was a whacked out thug and said "hey look, there's g money out there in the pond acting like a fool again". They knew he wasn't right anyway so they taunted him cause they knew he was a fucked up guy. I in no way condone or could fathom behaving in such a way but just an idea.
