The Mayor
Perhaps. We’ll never know what really went on there but I do think that it touched on issues of racial profiling and the ‘threat’ that Black Boys pose to your Beat cop on the street.I think people make a mistake by including Mike Brown in the conversation when the topic of police brutality and police execution of citizens comes up. DOJ report under Obama and Eric Holder(AG) confirms the details of the alteraction that lead to Brown's death. I think Brown was the wrong figure to rally around.
Whether Mike did right or wrong, he shouldn’t have been profiled and ultimately should be alive today but isn’t. It stands to reason that had he been white, he would not have been profiled, the cop wouldn’t have regarded him the same way and he wouldn’t have been killled. I think that’s really what made the Mike Brown stick. It did for me atleast
