Well you got the "guilt by association" logical fallacy going for you.

'''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''

Why don't you take five seconds to actually think about the post you're responding to? Perhaps the officers were actually pursuing the passenger in the car, not the driver? The driver, by resisting arrest became part of the crime. Remember this was an undercover operation. Both the officers and the perpetrators were in the club for a period of time. It was from this surveillance that the police based their arrest. The perp with the arrest record for armed robbery (shot at someone during a robbery) might have been the subject of arrest. Only a prejudiced idiot like yourself would automatically assume this was guilt by association. It might have been death by association, but it was the drivers behavior, not the officers that got the man killed. If you think this was a race issue you are indeed a fool sir.

Look at some of my later posts on the thread. It clarifies and highlights my reasoning.

Also, I hate the stupid FR peculiarity where someone is insulted and called "sir" in the same sentence. If you want to call me a fool, by all means, but drop the patronizing "sir".
