First let me say upfront I AM NOT a racist and hope no one will jump to that conclusion, please. Today I saw where another police officer was shot in the head an now fighting for his life. I would like to know if my math is correct......in the last 5 months we have had 3 minority persons die at the hands of police and in each case protest, riots, looting etc. have occurred, this is the fifth police officer wounded or killed, yet no protest, no riots, looting etc. What is wrong with this picture?

The media is the BIGGEST instigator of all these issues...none of them report the news, but promote racism. They are pathetic!

I agree that the biggest instigator is the media. It's really troubling when you think about it, the media is what controls the mood of the country, its even more disgusting when you consider how morally bankrupt a lot of these journalist are like Brian Williams as the largest example.

There doesn't seem to be any objectivity in the media anymore, they all have taken very distinctive sides and have drawn clear lines as to where they stand. We need to find a way back to the middle before it is too late.

I think it boils down to common sense, because law biding citizens know the difference between right and wrong. Law biding citizens do not roit and destroy thier neighborhoods, because they use common sense. Another way to look at this issue is when a natural disaster happens in our country you can tell the ones that the community bands together and takes care of itself and the ones that instantly cry for help. Our government has taught society one thing over the past few years and it is that they can do what they want and someone will make an excuse for it and it is ok.

Minority Leaders never question the black on black violence, which is pandemic amongst their communities. Secondly, there's no parental/generational community guidance amongst their families.
