    Hey! you'll get your pound of Flesh and rightfully so when they convict these White Cops for the murder of George Floyd, but the disparity in Outrage over Interracial murder in the United States is sickening. OJ Simpson slaughtered Nicole Simpson and Ron Goldman, but the Black community came in droves to support him and he was acquitted. All I'm saying is there is a bias by the Media and the Left about the level of outrage in America on what Human is killed and who did the Killing. White on Black murder = Outrage, Protests and Riots, Black on White murder = Umm! that was unfortunate, but were not giving much airtime to this Story. It should be Human murdered by Human = Outrage! equitably across the Country, but Interracial Murder has become a Political Weapon as long as it's the White person doing the murder.

    Do you mean this guy?

    "McAtee was a 53-year-old African American man known for offering free meals to officers who stopped by his restaurant.

    Acting police Chief Robert Schroeder said Tuesday that video from security cameras at McAtee’s business and an adjoining store showed McAtee firing a gun as officers approached."

    If you fire a gun as officers are approaching you during a riot, it's not that surprising something bad happened. Also, if FOUR officers and guardsmen shot at him (as per your account) it sounds pretty justified. It's not like one rogue cop shot the guy on some lazy Saturday afternoon. Whatever McAtee did, including firing a gun, FOUR trained professionals thought it merited returning fire.

    You need a better story if you're hoping to portray the rioters and domestic terrorists "protesters" as sweethearts and innocent victims.

    They could protest the false narratives that led this man to be so filled with hate to do this in the first place. They could protest and spread messages of love and peace instead of hating who’re people. They could protest to seek ways to help the black community without violence and murder.

    Nothing he said there was racist. You simply lack the ability to formulate a proper rebuttal

    Everything was racist in my view

    Inflammatory

    Faux outrage over a death which would not otherwise have even been mentioned - just one more black person shot by a gun, seen THAT used as an excuse way too many times on this board

    What if I said the real reason he was shot was simply there are too many guns in America and too few concerned about the impact of that

    There is NOTHING indicating McAfee fired a weapon of any kind!!! The cops and guards heard shots and began firing indiscriminately.

    Yes, that’s your view. And it is wrong. there was nothing racist said there.

    The faux outrage is coming from the left every time they complain about violence when they only care if it goes in certain directions. The hypocrisy is astounding.

    You could say that, but you would be wrong.

    You are right. Cops don't get nearly as upset when a black person is killed.

    Here (again):

    "Acting police Chief Robert Schroeder said Tuesday that video from security cameras at McAtee’s business and an adjoining store showed McAtee firing a gun as officers approached."

    What was racist? Cite the specific sentences please. Let’s judge your education level shall we? Or we can rank you on the troll-o-meter:)

    Never mind. Saw your later post. You don’t know what racist means. It’s racist now to be angry over a completely innocent person dying.

    If people were interested (stories getting clicks, etc) they would get more. But they have each gotten more than a fair amount of coverage. Stop crying because other news is happening.

    Incorrect they have all gotten very little coverage barely mentioned and only in passing. People are more interested in it yet it will still not get any coverage partly comparatively to when a black person is killed. You don’t have to like this reality but it is reality nonetheless
