The police already described the scumbag as “dark skinned” they can’t even say black even though we already know he is..it takes a certain scum of the earth to go behind a cop, shoot him in the back of the head, then while he’s lying on the ground, shoot him four more times in the back..find the scum and hang him in the town square

I checked a CNN link, they couldn't bring themselves to say dark complected, yet did make mention of the color of the shirt the suspect is wearing, and the color of the extended cab Ford Ranger he is thought to be driving.

I don't think the pics are sourced from AP, and so can be posted here.

It takes a certain scum of the earth to say “dark skinned” for PC purposes.

“Dark skinned” is actually an improvement for Houston news coverage. The usual practice has been to describe everything down to the last detail of color (even hair, eyes and shoes) and totally omit any mention of skin color, except for whites and sometimes Hispanics. So if there is no skin color in the story, the default thinking is that the person is black. Michael Berry, our local radio guy, has been shaming the Houston media for years over this.
