Not the white guy ten miles away from me, who got blasted to bits the second the cop felt threatened (and he was in his own home). Cop walked Scot free.

So while cops need to do a better job with dealing with these kinds of people, these kinds of individuals are placing themselves in bad situations that raise their chances of getting injured or killed. The bottom line is if these kinds of people weren't killed by cops, they would've likely messed with the wrong person down the road and got themselves killed or thrown in jail anyways. The only difference is that few people would shed a tear for them in that circumstance than compared to if they were killed by police.

And what did I write in the post that you quoted? That it seems a lot of the people being shot are guilty of smaller crimes - and those who needed to be shot because they're brandishing a gun - seem to be the ones who should have been behind bars in the first place.

More white guys are killed by cops than black guys, but it doesn't get media attention.

I don't think bad cops see ethnicity or gender. They just beat and kill whoever blinked one too many times at them.

What concerns me is people are buying guns at an alarming rate thinking there is something looming in the coming days. I I think they believe that their could be anarchy on a national basis and they are arming themselves. They want to protect themselves and guns are their weapon.

People are buying assault rifles in particular because there is a good chance they will get banned after everything that's happening..

They are buying many different kinds of weapons. Glocks,rifles,you name it. Times are getting strained. White's are getting angry. I see it.
Media is setting this up. They are dividing the races and creating hate,big hate. I don't like it.
