To me it's just the media, regardless of what race (we're all human) the Cop should be sent to jail for murder. And then again there's the defense of "oh he was just another thug looking for it" yet if he wasn't armed I don't see why the need to shoot him, look at all the other unarmed assaults on police officers by whites. Overall I'm just a conspiracy theorist and the media is brainwashing everyone to dislike other races. Like in the book of war one of the strategies was to divide and conquer. Divide the people racially and then we are weaker. What's happened in ferguson is good in the sense of peaceful protest but the bad is all the luxe less looting. But ya that's how I see it.

I see what you mean. People who dont even live in Ferguson are going their just to loot and they could care less about whats really going on.

Do you think people in Ferguson would act the same if the cop that Micheal Brown was African American?
What if the cop was white and the victim was white???

No, reason they are rioting is mostly because of what they perceive to be racism [I'm not saying it isn't, but it's arguable that it isn't.]
If it was a black on black shooting then it wouldn't have been racist, same with it being white on white.
I don't think they are rioting mostly because Michael Brown [according to them] was innocent.
I think the main cause is the long history of black/white inequality in the area, and this was just the tipping point.

And finally, What if the same cop had shot someone who was white nor black, but maybe Hispanic or Asian?

Ferguson is a predominantly black community, I think there would have been a bit of 'that's racist!' but nothing comparable to the extent of outrage that we are seeing now.

If this shooting had of taken place in a predominantly Asian or Hispanic community, and the victim had been Asian or Hispanic, we might be seeing something similar, but there's a lot of cultural factors to take into consideration as well, so we wouldn't really know if that would happen until it does happen.

I'm sorry but anyone one with brains knows not to attack a police officer!! and he didn't murder him, it was ether the cop or the black man? and the black man was high on drugs, rob a liquor store. he was a wanna be gangsta thats what that life gives you 6 feet under..

I wouldn't say that they are lying about the information they give to us, just that they will withhold information which doesn't conform to their agenda, or will put a spin on certain information to serve their interests.
I'd never go as far as to say that the media as a whole is one big brainwashing machine, but it'd be quite silly to say that there is no media outlet without some bias.

Yeah, I feel like the cop was doing the right thing killing him. If he reached in his car and tried to take his firearm he obviously had intentions of killing the cop.

The cop did his job to serve and protect. Micheal grabbed the cops gun what is he suppose to do smack his wrist and say dont do again
