Mike Brown? Thug. No sympathy.

Eric Garner? Some sympathy.

Tamir Rice? Shot a 12 year old boy in 2 seconds? That ain’t right.

Travon? Thug punk. No sympathy,

John Crawford? Sympathy. Shot dead in a Walmart in an open carry state holding a BB gun he picked up off the shelf. Talking on a phone.

If Crawford was white we’d be talking about Jack Booted Thugs.

Good post. These cases are not all cops vs thugs-committing-crimes. The Rice and Crawford cases appear to be cops shooting first, thinking second.

That said, the overall narrative being pushed by the Left and media (but I repeat myself), that Blacks in general are victims of racist violence in the USA is BS of the highest purity. Blacks are overwhelmingly the perpetrators of violence, against each other and against non-blacks. They kill at rate 8 times that of whites.

Great summary. Clumping Michael Brown and Trayvon Martine with genuine victims is a travesty.
