Who asked the questions in the OP?


CNN's headline on their frontpage this morning was "Why do whites run mostly black city?" So I turned it around saying "Why do blacks run mostly white country?" The stuff I quoted in the op were directly from the homepage. Those facts are found in an article "who is Darren Wilson?" now:

Two-thirds of Ferguson's population is black. The police chief is white. Only three African-Americans are on the 53-person police force.

The mayor is also white, and so are five of the six city council members.

Okay. You probably should have done a screen capture since the front page is always changing, but I agree that it was a stupid question. It's my understanding that Ferguson is a community in transition, with Blacks moving in and Whites moving out, so it will proably take a couple of election cycles before the makeup of the government reflects this.
