Nonwhite cop kills unarmed white youth, national media, AG and POTUS ignore
The question "What If The Cop Were Non-White, And The Victim White" has often been asked especially during the past several days. This particular shooting occurred in Salt Lake City, and just like Black On White or Black On Black crime, it has been roundly ignored. Just another confirmation that Al Sharpton, the AG, POTUS, etal are not concerned about justice but only self serving theatrics that stoke the divide and conquer scenario.
From The American Thinker Blog:"A brutal natural experiment is underway demonstrating the role of race, riots, and radicals in determining whose death is noted, and whose ignored in racialized America when unarmed young men are shot and killed by police. While American and world media, along with the President and Attorney General of the United States, obsess over the death of Michael Brown at the hands of the Ferguson, Missouri police, few people outside of Utah have heard of the remarkably parallel and contemporaneous death of Dillon Taylor, an unarmed young man (and father-to-be) from a gun shot by a Salt Lake City policeman, whose name has not been released, but who has been identified the SLC chief of police as nonwhite...
No one has suggested that Taylor was involved in the commission of any crime, unlike Brown who was captured on surveillance camera robbing a convenience store shortly before his death....
Unlike the Ferguson Police, Salt Lake City Police wear body video cameras, so footage of the entire incident is available to the police and the chief of police has watched it. But so far there has been no release of the tape.
[Chief of Police Chris] Burbank has watched the video but would not comment on whether he thought the Aug. 11 shooting in a 7-Eleven parking lot was justified. Burbank also would not comment on whether the 20-year-old Taylor had a gun. The man's family has said he was not armed."
