Not even hardly. At this point the riots and "message" have a life of their own. Brown's actions are a subtitle, at best.
If people honestly and truly want the looting and violence to stop, send out a couple of sharpshooters. One or two well-aimed hits on these thugs is all it would take to restore "peace." Of course nobody has the gonads for that.
Do not be surprised if that video in question has gone viral. Still as you have said, there is life of its own. This is why it will help in any court case the video though.
