    Why? Is this not a valid question?

    Because there is no evidence that this officer treats minorities differently than whites?

    Because there is no evidence that the death of the office was a result of how he handled the situation?

    I could understand if there was some evidence, but there isn't any.

    This thread isn't really that different than RONNYS.

    Because of stereotypes and the fact that I am a minority and have been treated differently because of it, by the police.

    Depends on the minority

    Are average Americans even aware that racial issues can affect non-black minorities?

    Have you ever met this particular officer?

    This really isn't that much different than saying: "Black people have stolen from me so I know a black man stole my watch."

    You are entitled to your opinion and I have no problem with you voicing it; just like I have no problem with anyone else expressing their opinion... I would rather people say how they feel than hide do to the PC police.

    The perpetrator looks old as shyt... That particular cop might have mistakenly took him as a non-threat, or maybe the guy just got the drop on him.

    You tell me... Because it seems you spend plenty of time obsessing about the black minority group. It's like it's all you talk about.

    I'm just replying to what's in the D&D, which seems to be all about one group.

    A cop was murdered (who had a family) and you haven't said one word about it in any of your post... But I guess that doesn't matter enough for you to reply to. Do white lives not matter :(

    I don't think one should extrapolate racial victim hood by self-servingly contorting the circumstances of a public servant's untimely and unwarranted death.
