Two police officers were shot last night if you haven't heard yet. My problem is different than what is being reported. The DoJ report shows that blacks in Ferguson are more criminal than whites. That is what it shows. My problem is that is not how it is presented. They present it as a problem that they are arrested more.
Officers shot.
The shooting of the officers, who were in serious condition at a hospital, was the latest incident in months of turmoil in the St. Louis suburb of Ferguson, which has been at the center of an intense national debate over police use of force, particularly against black men, since a white officer killed an unarmed black teenager there in August.
St. Louis County Police Chief Jon Belmar told reporters early on Thursday that a 41-year-old officer from his department was struck in the shoulder and a 32-year-old officer from the nearby Webster Groves Police Department was hit in the face about midnight as the crowd was starting to break up.
The report reminds me of what Stephen A Smith in all his candor has also noticed. ESPN used to have this segment up and took it down for obvious reasons. It doesn't follow the mantra of what they push. This guy put a camera in front of the TV and put it up. Same problem as Ferguson that is in the NFL.
