There are a thousand of these stories happening all over the world. People seem riveted on this one in particular. You can argue the facts, the events, the testimony forever and never quite have the whole complexity of what truly happened. There are two many nuances of action and reaction and the intricacy of each human involved in this physical confrontation between two men for anyone on the outside to fully comprehend the ultimate truth(s) of this event. You can talk about every theory from homophobia to racism to indigestion as reasons behind this deadly encounter but you'd probably be wrong. Sometimes life remains a mystery and I feel it is best to emerge from exposure to these kinds of media frenzies free of bitterness and resentment as onlookers -which is what we all are.
