I know! It must way overshadow Demario Bailey's gruesome ordeal....oh, wait, no riots over that? Nobody even heard of him outside of Chicago? A young, unarmed black boy is still dead...if it's not sensationalized by the national media and those wannabe dumbass race-baiting preachers, then everyone in the media acts as if black lives don't matter. Absurd.

It seems those who get shot and/or killed by police almost exclusively put themselves in the unwise position of making the cop choose an alternative method of a forcible take-down. Either by resisting arrest or pointing a weapon at a policeman, etc.

It's an unfortunate ordeal when anyone dies when confronted by the law, whether justifiable or not. And the methods used can always be discussed/debated. But it never gives anyone the right to act badly and act a fool. Those that think that are true idiots. I think even a little civil disobedience could be tolerated if it didn't harm others or cause damage to property to bring attention to grievances. But if people feel wronged and expect change out of the violence they choose to do, they're doing it wrong and usually things get worse instead of better. They simply choose to lose.
