    Examples of the media's silence on race in THIS case:
    http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/news/58304981-78/police-taylor-lake-salt.html.csp
    http://www.inquisitr.com/1412236/dillon-taylor-police-shooting/
    http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2014/08/...ah-man-because-he-wouldnt-comply-with-orders/

    None of these articles mention race AT ALL. And that wouldn't be a problem, IF cases like Michael Brown were treated the same. But when it's a black man who is shot, THEN it's nothing but screaming about "racism". But when a black man does the shooting, then race is not mentioned. Just who are the racists here?

    I'm glad that I can trust a black police officer to shoot a white guy and I'll just assume the white guy was asking for it. If that's not white privilege, I don't know what is!

    If he got shot, he probably deserved it. Shocking I know.

    I have had numerous run ins with police, and not once have I been shot.

    Mr. Dillon was shot and killed. There were protests. No riots. No looting. No burning. Isn't that just so gosh darned strange? Oh, there was also no comment from President Obama, AG Eric Holder is not on the way to Salt Lake City, Al Sharpton has not reserved a room in any hotel within fifty miles. Weird, huh? I think I heard that Jesse Jackson did say, "Salt Lake where?"

    I think that may be something to do with him being a hardened criminal, still under the court for an armed robbery, homeless and unable to go home without his family calling the cops, and police were responding to a 911 call about a man waving a gun.
    When they got there, it seems he attacked them.
    http://fox13now.com/2014/08/12/sout...olice-posted-eerie-message-days-before-death/

    That and his facebook page suggests he was going for suicide by police.

    In other words, just a criminal the world is better off without.
    Only the white power boys are interested in pushing this.

    Of course . . . no one any more racist than blacks. They were laughing about it I am sure.

    In my town, blacks are protesting the Brown thing and generally cops shooting black people, whooping and hollering about how this "got to stop".

    Truth: In 2013 in my state, 8 whites were killed by cops. 4 blacks were killed by cops. 3 Hispanics were killed by cops.

    Oops!

    Because there isn't an epidemic of black officers shooting white men.... unlike white officers shooting black men.

    It's math.

    How would you know? It's not like the media is going to tell you about it. But boy will they play it up if the cop is white, hence you think there's an "epidemic."

    You made the claim that there's and epidemic of white officers shooting black men. Please substantiate your claim with factual material.

    Are you putting this on your resume so you can apply to be a White House spokesperson?

    how many time have police thought you had a gun, having a gun can get you killed and if you have a gun and are shot, they can easily shove it under the rug...

    Step one is applying for a job. Of course, that's something you wouldn't be familiar with. No, for you the world is all racism.

    Wow funny how all that valuable information was left out. Just curious was there ever a report about Mike Brown waving a gun.

    About 1 out of 4 cops are racial minorities.

    About 1 out of 4 Americans are racial minorities.

    That is some strange looking racism...

    Another silly unsubstantiated claim for shock value.

    Math:
    2.5 of ten officers are of racial or ethnic minority

    1 of ten are hispanic or latino

    leaving 1.5 of ten as predominately black

    1.5 of ten = 15%

    Pretty much matches general population demographics

    Summary:
    Racism caterwauling fail.

    I do wonder though in both cases if as many would be upset if the cops race was different....
