Jumping to Appease Liberals

It didn't start in Ferguson, MO, but it escalated into a cause from there. The linked article paints Michael Brown as an innocent child, only interested in "chilling" with his friends, who never did anything wrong, who was MURDERED by a "rogue cop" while walking down a street. What is not mentioned is his intimidation of people who are smaller than he, including the clerk in the convenience store he was leaving after stealing some cigars. Walking down a street? Yes; right in the middle of the street, screwing up traffic, and when a cop asked him to stop, he ATTACKED that cop, hoping to use his size to overpower him. It didn't work.

 When he continued attacking, the cop shot him, as would any intelligent person with a giant such as this attacking. The city, anxious to appease the liberals, charged him, tried him, and found him innocent, which sparked RIOTS by disaffected criminals who thought this was an opportunity to "get" a cop. In Baltimore, MD, six cops were charged with murder when Freddy Gray, a recent back surgery patient, accidentally killed himself by banging his head against the wall of a police "wagon" on his way to jail, in an attempt to incriminate those cops. As in Ferguson, wiser heads prevailed, and three of them were found innocent, and the charges were dropped on the other three.

But their careers were ruined, as was that of the cop in Ferguson. Today, they're rioting in St. Louis after a cop was acquitted in the death of a black man. Never mind it was after a chase, and that black man was fighting for all he was worth. This situation is becoming all too common as people like those in "Black Lives Matter" twist facts unmercifully to incriminate the cops, who were doing their jobs. Yes, there ARE instances where cops shoot people (black and white) unnecessarily. But those cases are rare. The problem is created when "authorities" jump to appease the liberals, whose only purpose is to give the cops a black eye. Nothing is ever said about the cops who have been killed from ambush without warning, usually by a black man. Mentioning that would not advance their rhetoric. Such instances make other cops VERY nervous. They know they're right out there, in a conspicuous uniform, easy to identify, while the bad guys are difficult to tell from honest people.
