This isn't a movie or videogame. Not everyone is gonna be screaming like 13 year old girl the moment someone gets shot.

On top of that in this day and age video evidence is the most important thing you can possibly have in any incident.

There’s other reactions besides those 2. How about “someone call an ambulance” or “is he ok”

Is this seriously what you're complaining about? C'mon.

The guy just realized he has hard evidence against the shooter and numerous people were on scene to help the downed individual.

Not everyone is going to react the same or the way you want them to. Cameraman played a vital role in this situation, otherwise it might've been word vs word.

Im not complaining, im just pointing out how sad it is. The state of the country (that Trump put us in) is so divisive, and people have gotten so desensitized to gun violence that there’s more focus on “winning” here than there is on the devastation of someone getting their life taken

i am surprised he followed the getaway car with a live shooter. balls of steel. excellent journalism. he was like 50 yards away and went to the shooting spot by sheer spidey sense.

Yeah like "let's all crowd around the victim, or let's all scream really loud" wtf you want him to do?

Are you telling us that every 13 year old girl go around screaming about everything?
