If The Shoe Was On The Other Foot?

If Brown had killed the officer - taken his gun and killed him, would that be considered a race based killing? Would the white community be looting and protesting? Would Eric Holder be headed to Ferguson to investigate?

No, No, No
And no headline media attention

It would have never even made the national news.

You still would have never heard of Ferguson, MO.

It never makes national news, same as all of the other black on black violent crimes across the country each day.

What a fricked up world we have made for ourselves.

Yes. You make a good point. All killing done by opposite races is race based. If you think otherwise you're a hypocrite. Obviously.

If that had happened, Brown would have been arrested and charged that very day, and there would have been nothing to protest.

Is there something to protest relative to Brown? If so, what and what proof do you have one way or the other?

I'm so tired of race being thrown in everything.....
Why do you care if it would be looked at as racist if MB would have killed Wilson?
