What's up is it's national news when a black person gets shot by a white cop, and when it's a white person taking the bullet the story stays on the local crime blotter.
- dragonwriter 11y agoIts national news when unarmed people are shoot by cops and eyewitness reports or other early evidence suggests there is no good cause for the shooting, which for some reason happens more often when white cops shoot black people than any other combination.

- dragonwriter 11y agoNo, I think that because when people who try to point to police shootings of whites that aren't getting national attention to sell the media bias stories, those other non-race elements are consistently also absent.
