To me it seems ridiculous that he was a bystander that just happened to be there and decided to catch it on tape. How is that illegal? Nothing he was doing was illegal at all. To top it off the cops pull guns on him? Sounds like Miami police has problems.
I find it impressive that he was able to get the micro-sd card out of the evo fast enough. That thing tends to be a pain to remove let alone when you are in a hurry.

One of the users in the comments read this in a article.
"He didn't have a weapon. He hit a police officer earlier that day with his car. The officer was not severly injured and was part of the five that took part in this shooting. They found him later that day, surrounded him, yelled at him to put his hands on his head, and proceeded to unload 90 bullets on him, four innocent bystanders were hit by the cops during this exchange."
Sounds to me they have some really bad cops.

Unfortunately anybody can be a cop nowadays...and that's what happens when you give power to week minds, it's abused.
No offense to cops, i'm sure there are good ones also it's just that the pre-requisites to becoming a cop should be harder and more particular imo. Then again, there is already a shortage of police. So what can you do.

Believe it or not but I never had any negative feelings towards ios until the announcement of ios 5. Pretty amazing how gullible people are and apple feeds on it perfectly...
I can see why cops wouldn't want this posted on the internet, since it could potentially show their faces and make them vulnerable, but imo that just comes with the territory. They have all that power and it's only right that ordinary citizens have some sort of check on them

There is no way he took the sd card out while the video was being shot, because you have to remove the battery. This would turn the phone off, which means he can't be recording like he is till the end..

Good luck to you man, I know how bad jail sucks. Best piece of advice I can give you- don't drop the soap
hahaha its washoe county.
A. They probably don't have soap.
B. 80 of people in there are weekend warriors for possession of marijuana.
C. I pity the fool that tries to give me a log ride if I were to drop the soap.
Good luck m8.... you'll be fine. Just remember, the first thing you do is find the biggest Guy that's in your cell block/pod... what ever they call them now.
Hit him square on the chin... this can have 2 outcomes. Both a plus!!!
1. He drops like a bag of bricks, you'll get your own cell for a bit and no one will f with you.
2. He smiles, drops you like a bag of bricks, you'll get your own bed in the hospital wing and people will think your crazy and have some kind of death wish.
Win... Win... plus you'll have a great story to tell either way, right?

I know my way around a jail a bit. So no internet, listen to the tank boss, stick to your own kind white on white, black with black, etc... always brush your teeth before morning chow or you will get a beatdown. Lastly find out which toilets are for what. One will be for pissing, one for ****ting, and one for washing clothes. Don't mess that up. Good luck.
The EVO you wish you had
Why not show up with a bondsman and skip jail until the court date?
Pay it in full you get it all back if you show up to court.
Better do those taxes with turbotax. You'll get your refund in a week so you can pay those fines.
Take your Evo and disassemble it and smuggle it in your anus like some people do. You can also train a pigeon to drop it off in the yard.

Here is what i wrote,
Signed/Encrypted bootloaders... Come on HTC... This really pisses me off. Think about it, really, what are you losing here? Almost nothing. It is the persons choice to root, so you lose no quality control.
But back onto the actually point. Signing/encrypting bootloaders or other functions of a device that a consumer owns was considered a radical idea. It was frowned upon and was thought of as childish. And that is how you guys are acting, childish. You lock down your phones because your scared of what.... progress?
I understand there are some problems for you with rooting. For example, free wireless tethering, ability to use leaked ROMs and other factors. But this is such a small hand off to wage war with developers. Microsoft did it, Sony did it, even Apple did it.... Look were they all are now. The hackers do everything they can to make sure they can hack and DOMINATE the devices they lock down. In Microsoft's and Sony's case, there is a difference in reason, piracy. Now, tell me, if I can already install any app on my phone, what piracy are you protecting users form by not allowing them to do anything custom with their phone?
You have brought the whole world a step backwards, as a lot of people believe in your philosophies, and eventually will standardize them. What this about to start is enormous, there is no problem right now for you because people aren't even trying to hack your gay signature checks. Why? Because those developers DONT BUY THAT PHONE. ------->DONT<---- Buy that phone. Now, once that this standdard is implemented with every single modern phone, you guys will be tormented by the constant stream of hacks and exploits the a full force of developers can bring. You will be stressed to the point as the iPhone jailbreaking scene replicates itself to Android devices.
I mean come on HTC, do you really want to start all of this? I wouldn't. By not locking down your devices, you gain more customers(even though its a small percent that would leave because of your decisions), you gain a better view from people as a good company, and you get the benefit of geeks saying good things about you on their blogs. Yes HTC, thats were all the reviews come from, US. We will spare you no mercy in our reviews if you condemn us to this treatment any longer.
On a final note, i hope to rethink your decisions to sign/encrypt bootloaders and other parts of the phone. The whole point of Android is to be OPEN, not CLOSED. Thats what makes it different. The point is to be open, no matter what COST or FACTORS convince you otherwise. I do not even want to buy the HTC Evo 3D now because of your changes. Now HTC, rethink what you have done, please, and see if you can change it before it gets out of hand. In the end, you are the company that gets to make the decisions, but we are the consumers who buy your products.
Thanks so much for a great ride so far HTC,
You will be missed

That would be interesting to see (that he or Apple have done any charitable works), but unless its on paper, it's simply hearsay.
He established a foundation in '86 if I remember correctly, but apparantly the guy who he left to manage it said Jobs didn't seem very interested in maintaining it and was more focused on Apple (which he should have been to a certain degree, obviously if there's no money coming in, how can he help anyone, right?).
But the fact of the matter is, his charitable contributions seem to be nil. There's no reason to hide helping people out. You can be quiet about doing it, sure. But to leave no trail of it existing? Not so sure about that.
And to clarify, if his will ends up giving/establishing charities or anything of the like, good for him and RIP. But until then, I can't feel much for the guy.
There will be no jokes about how the latest iPhone was a the proverbial nail in the... well never mind.
As a innovator he was truly a genius. As a businessman and a promoter, he was second to none. He was a man living ahead of his time. What ever your opinion of Apple, the World has truly lost one of its best.
