[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As for the posters who repeatedly assert that though 90% of blacks are decent it is the 10% criminal element among blacks that warrants the police's fear/distrust resulting in the prevalence for the use of unnecessary force...uh, the same ratio can be applied to law enforcement.  
90% of cops are decent, yes, but it is the 10% that have racial biases that lead them to predominantly target blacks or primarily use unnecessary deadly force on blacks that instigates the public's fear/distrust of cops.

You really can't read, can you?[/quote]

I can read quite well and I can see also.  The citizens of Charlotte saw in September 2013 a former FAMU football player Jonathan Ferrell crashed his vehicle in a suburban area of Charlotte, North Carolina and went seeking help.  After knocking on the door of a nearby house and the homeowner panicked and called the police.  Charlotte-Mecklenberg officers said the 24-year-old advanced towards them when they arrived on the scene — that’s when one officer fired a stun gun and Officer Randall Kerrick followed up, unloaded his firearm and shot the unarmed young man 10 times.  Ferrell was pronounced dead and Kerrick charged with voluntary manslaughter.  In January 2014, a grand jury decided not to indict Kerrick, citing insufficient evidence to bring a case against the officer.[/quote]

Does this incident sound like that of Michel Brown?[/quote]
