The justified killing of a SINGLE African-American male in Missouri sparked the largest race relations movement this country has seen since fricking Jim Crow.

You have to be detached from reality to think what you highlighted is a straw man.

Public outcry has certainly been outsized, whether it has been presented as the most critical issue facing the black community or not. So it's not like a real straw man argument. If he were only saying that this isn't the most critical issue facing the black community, then sure. But that's an easy claim. He's really arguing against the outsized reaction.

You've set up a straw man by pointing out a statement in the argument that isn't really the point he's making in order to discredit the author and, thereby, the article.

Precisely. When was the last time you saw Sharpton at the funeral of a black person, killed in the hood by another black person?

Was on his way down to Houston when the blonde hair blue-eyed killer was on the loose and he did the Simpson grandpa gif when he saw who really did it.

In 2015, a police officer was 18.5 times more likely to be killed by a black male than an unarmed black male was to be killed by a police officer. Black males have made up 42 percent of all cop-killers over the last decade, though they are only 6 percent of the population

You are such a sad little sky screamer. You should be happy that there’s not a police genocide against blacks.

Agreed. But there are people that claim cops shouldn't shoot back even when the perps have fired on them.

The worst officer involved shooting I have ever seen the video of was Daniel Shaver (white). The slow-motion march toward his death was brutal to watch.

IN the end, "everything" is an emergency or epidemic these days and certainly many of these need to be addressed but the elevation of everything to an emergency simply means nothing is an emergency.
