re: Michael Brown question?

I have a few questions of my own regarding Michael Brown. Let's start with:
1. Ferguson, MO, is two thirds African-American by population. How did it come to pass that the Police Chief is white and 54 out of 57 Ferguson police officers are white? Something shady is going on there.

The chief is an appointee of the elected mayor. The elected mayor is white.
The chief said he acknowledged the point about black officers but not enough apply that are qualified. Well that's his answer. I have no way to vet that answer obviously.
Curious what this has to do with the Michael Brown incident specifically though.

But Ferguson’s police department is also more or less average in its diversity. A 2007 survey of local police forces across the country from the Department of Justice showed that the average for a city of Ferguson’s size—21,000—is an 87.5 percent white police force, and 5.6 percent black. The national average for all local police stands at 75 percent white.
Not a Ferguson thing
