“A poster at the Tulsa World page says that this particular location is in ‘the projects’ and so considering this I won’t speculate, as any such speculation may be construed as ‘racism’ and I have no wish to be banned from FR.”

Well, I’m going to take that risk.
It seems that many in the black community, much as with OJ, would rather see a black murderer get away (with it) than see “the Man” bring him to justice.
I agree with you, having watched the LA Riots not long ago. Chaos/ anarchy/ defiance of law — these are exciting to the yutes in some parts.
I'm guessing that the City of Tulsa has many fine black police officers, many of whom were probably at this event. And of course I'm sure that Tulsa has many fine black judges, prosecutors, etc.
But none of this 'counts' of course, because all of these mentioned folks speak English correctly and are working to uphold the law and the Constitution, and so they are judged as being 'not authentically black' and part of the Oppression by the Evil White Man.
This is all so very tiresome.
You hit the nail right on the head. In the black community at large (though I’m sure there are many blacks who are ashamed of this fact) you will be supported, no matter what your crime, simply because you’re black.
at least O.J. got away it makes up for all the wrongfully accused
