Ron - I have saved this as a new revision. I'm happy to talk about this, feel free to write back to me in another color.
Line: 71 to 71
 Specifically, your analysis of whether the video is actual Apache gun camera footage is particularly lacking. You barely scratch the surface of a topic that could be the subject of a much longer paper. You don't do the topic justice, and I think it would be far more effective for you to mention that this is another potential issue, but that you won't explore it in this paper. I am of the belief that it is better to not discuss something than to do so in a lacking way.

I think that the last section is the most convincingly argued by far. You address many of the problems that come with using videos for evidence, namely the lack of context, poor views and only one perspective, and you give concrete examples to back this up. I know that we're all short on time, but if this is something that really interests you, I'd recommend expanding this one section and giving a bit more in-depth analysis as opposed to trying to touch on so many issues (perhaps post finals). I'd definitely read it.

Don't know if you encountered it in Civ Pro, but the Supreme Court grappled with similar issues recently in Scott v. Harris.~Shawn
