Tensions are high in Elizabeth City, North Carolina, following the police shooting death of Andrew Brown, a black man. So naturally, Brown family attorney Benjamin Crump (has anyone seen him in a courtroom?) and his entourage are on scene to inflame the already-sensitive situation by calling anyone and everyone nearby a racist.

Bakari Sellers, a Democratic lawyer who also works at CNN and is representing the Brown family, emerged from viewing police body camera footage of the deadly incident to claim he had been belittled by the white county attorney, R. Michael Cox.
