He doesn't really come off as a champion of black folks (and sounds like he was primarily raised in white communities and had mostly white friends).

His support is mostly from people who don't like the LAPD, the government, etc.

He should get the death penalty and this needs to stop, but I completely see why he would be appealing. He's like a black Rambo, fighting a corrupt system.
