Does anyone remember Detective Melvin Santiago? He was a Jersey City police officer who was shot to death just a month ago, on July 13th. Santiago was white. His killer, Lawrence Campbell, was black. Does anyone recall Obama appearing before national television and calling for justice for Officer Santiago’s family? Does anyone recall Eric Holder rushing to Jersey City to see that justice was done?
How about Officer Jeffrey Westerfield. He was a Gary, Indiana police officer who was shot to death last month on July 6th. Westerfield was white. His killer, Carl LeEllis Blount, Jr. was black. Where was Obama? Where was Holder?
Or Officer Perry Renn? He was an Indianapolis, Indiana police officer who was shot to death just last month on July 5th, the day before Officer Westerfield was killed. Officer Renn was white. His killer, Major Davis, was black. I don't recall any mention by Obama about the untimely death of Officer Renn. And, I doubt that Eric Holder rushed to Indianapolis to make sure justice was done. Or, maybe I just missed it.
Vermillion Parish Deputy Sheriff Allen Bares was gunned down by two men just last June 23rd in Louisiana. Deputy Bares was white. His two killers, Quintlan Richard and Baylon Taylor, were black. Was Obama outraged? Did Eric Holder rush to Louisiana to make sure that the family of Deputy Bares found justice?
Right here , Detective Charles Dinwiddie of the Killeen Police Department was murdered by Marvin Lewis Guy, a black male. Officer Dinwiddie was white. This happened on May 11th, just over two months ago. I don’t even recall seeing anything about that on the news. Certainly, the white citizens in Killeen didn't take to the streets to loot and burn businesses. Again, I don't recall any mention by Obama or Holder.
Then, there is Officer Kevin Jordan of the Griffin, Georgia Police Department. He was gunned down just two months ago on May 31st. Officer Jordan was black. His killer, Michael Bowman, was white. This was a white man murdering a black police officer. Where was Jesse Jackson? Where was "The Reverend" Al Sharpton? Was there looting and burning on the streets of Griffin, Georgia? No. In fact, I don't recall hearing about this one in the news, as well. Why? You can draw your own conclusions.
Over the past 60 days, there have been five reported deaths of police officers by gunshot in the US. Of those, four were white officers who were murdered by black men. Blacks complain that white officers threat black men more aggressively on the street. You can draw your own conclusions on that one, as well.

This is so common today. Call it what you want reverse discrimination, but it is actually racism against whites it is very apparent every single day in the media and especially by Obama and his administration.
The Black community wants to eliminate the white race completely - but then who will they blame? HAHA! It will never happen!
While living in another state, I was attacked by a man (a serial rapist who is now in prison for murdering one of his other victims) who happened to not have the same color skin as I do. When my case went to trial, every person with the same skin color as him voted to acquit - despite both DNA evidence AND a confession. No one cared, though, because I am white. If the roles had been reversed - white attacker, black victim, every white juror voted to acquit despite DNA evidence and a confession - people would have been in an uproar.
Thankfully, the jury on the rape/murder case - which happened in another county (one in which people, regardless of their skin color, recognize that people are people and crime is crime, regardless of the color of victim or perpetrator)- found him guilty on all charges related to that case, and he will spend the rest of his life in prison without the chance for parole. Had that jury not done the right thing, my rapist would be walking the streets...
Sorry, although it is very sad when any person loses his or her life, there is an inherent difference when a police officer is killed in the line of duty and a police officer shooting a person who may not have done anything.
10:07, and who are you referring to? Specifically, when you say a police officer shooting a person who may not have done anything.
Had two incidents right here in Polk Co Fl. A white LEO from Winterhaven, PD and a White Deputy for the PCSO both shot by blacks. There was no rioting, looting, etc by the white community nor did frick & frack show up. It is sickening. Cannot blame LEOs for being proactive when dealing with THEM. Grrrrrrrrr
11:27 anyone who has been in that situation. are you saying the police have done anything wrong? laughable
How about just last month here in MD? Jury ruled Detective Joseph Walker was acting in self-defense to protect his wife and kids when he shot and killed Joseph Harvey in Anne Arundel County in June 2013. Walker black; Harvey white.
I am personally sick and tired of the RACE WAR/RACE CARD B*LLSH*T! Who gives a damn what color you are on the outside? Cut someone, and the Blood IS RED!! We are all HUMAN BEINGS! We ALL need to ACT like HUMAN BEINGS - not animals!!!!!

You sir are laughable. Police do wrong every single day. And they handled the situation in Ferguson wrong. That's why the county knuckleheads were relieved of duty. And why 3 cops were SUSPENDED without pay.
If your only goal is to insult people and call them names, or whatever, don't even bother to type a comment. You just waste everyone's time by reading it and then have to correct you.
