I think the context really matters. The context is that he was training his girlfriend's dog to react positively to extremely awful things for humorous effect. Very immature, offensive humor, yes. But to claim that he's actively promoting the genocide of a people is quite the stretch. Hell, the video is even still up on youtube and they wouldn't continue hosting a video that is a call to genocide.
It's also troubling that the police decided to arrest this dude in the absence of any complaints beforehand. Also they informed the media of his impending arrest before he was aware of any charges so that the media could get good footage of the perp walk. An orchestrated show to the rest of the public to show that you can't say offensive things or else big brother will make an example out of you.
