Sorry to have disappointed you?
I feel like the media has spun this out of control into a race issue when that really shouldn't have been the case at all. This should have been a discussion about the militarisation of our police forces and the failed war on drugs and how it disproportionately affects black Americans. Instead, CNN, MSNBC, and the other race baiters (Sharpton, et al) have turned it into a circus.
The "victim" in this case makes it hard to drum up a bunch of sympathy. While I do feel sorry that all of this happened, if you charge an armed police officer after robbing a convenience store, well......
