    The media and those who profit from tragedy have been very successful in creating a false narrative that police are out to kill black men.

    ...and if those are the only deaths that "go viral", it's a bit much to expect the general populace to dig deeper (they should, but we all know they won't) to see that police shoot and kill more white men than black men and that studies have shown that the number of black men shot by police are not disproportionate to the population at large (force, but not shooting).

    And of course, to actually try to assess if any given shooting was proper, and even if not, racially motivated.....way too tall an order.

    Tell you what.
    Lets a few of us fellas get together and shut down 465 and see how far/long we get.
    This crap is just maddening
    Yes, right to peaceful protest but not to hindering progress and commerce.
    Once again. If you or I did it and got run over or arrested, everyone would just figure, them boys had it coming.
