Black cop kills unarmed white male.

"Ferguson-like attack in Utah escapes media notice; race bias seen
Discrepancy in attention given to Ferguson’s Michael Brown, Utah’s Dillon Taylor fuels resentment

On the surface, the cases appear nearly identical: Michael Brown and Dillon Taylor, two young, unarmed men with sketchy criminal pasts shot to death by police officers two days apart.

But while the world knows of the highly publicized situation involving 18-year-old Mr. Brown, whose Aug. 9 death in Ferguson, Missouri touched off violence, protests and an angry national debate, most people outside Utah have never heard of 20-year-old Mr. Taylor.

Critics say there’s a reason for the discrepancy in media coverage: race. Mr. Brown was black and the officer who shot him was white. Mr. Taylor wasn’t black — he’s been described as white and Hispanic — and the officer who shot him Aug. 11 outside a 7-Eleven in South Salt Lake wasn’t white.

The perceived double standard is fueling resentment and talk of double standards on conservative talk radio and social media, where the website Twitchy has compiled a list of Twitter comments asking why Mr. Brown’s death has been front-page news for weeks while Mr. Taylor’s was a footnote at best........"

Race of cop is unknown. Just "not-white"

The dead guy is Hispanic.

Non-Africans are allowed to be killed in this country. It's all part of reparations for that slavery deal. :coffee:

Speaking of losing...

Why is the race of the police officer unknown in SLC but known in Ferguson? :suspicious:

Who reported, cared about, and protested about, the color of the police officer in Ferguson? :suspicious:

Tough questions, right? :lol:

Oh, BTW, White = Hispanic...see Zimmerman.

Who reported the races of the people involved, and reacted violently to those races, in that case? :suspicious:





Well, I guess that is settled...at least for anyone with a functioning brain. :nod: :thumb:








dback likes being gay, because once confronted, he turns his back, lays down, and usually just whimpers. Although sometimes,when feeling brave, he thrashes out saying stupid stuff...simply to get dominated.

dback is the catcher on his family team. :nod:

One of you mods wants to merge the 2 fine by me...

That covers about 75% of Utah.

Kind of fuzzy there on the cops ethnicity....
