Complicated issues don’t lend themselves to abridgement on Twitter. Police officers are sanctioned to defend themselves and all of us, so provoking them or getting physically aggressive carries great risk. Considering how many members of law enforcement lose their lives on a regular basis, it’s dangerous to assume they can ascertain who’s homicidal versus merely irate. Adding racial divide to this makes matters incendiary, so now rioting ensues. The larger issue manifested in Ferguson seems more societal as opposed to just being about law enforcement. Whether it’s the color of someone’s skin or their uniform, xenophobia is a sad and prevailing part of the human condition. Progress often occurs at a glacial pace, usually yielding new oppression to replace the old. Presented with overwhelming evidence, you don’t need a grand jury to always find the human race guilty.
