10kB Musings: Street Life - Cop Watch LA

I'm always on the lookout for inspiration for Ten Thousand Bullets, whether it's film, TV, literature, comics, or even (gasp!) real life. This video on Cop Watch LA was insightful into how, as William Gibson noted, The Street always finds its own way (check out both parts of the series for a little bit of insight into the intersection of police, real street culture, and what justice actually is  vs. what  we're told it is).

But take note, conspiracy theorists - there's reason to be nervous.
