The thin blue line

They're running quickly through the list of black men to shoot. Now white police are shooting off-duty black cops. This happened in St. Louis Wednesday night. The injured officer's attorney says he considers the incident to be more than an accident.

I'm not sure why a black man would ever come to the aid of a police officer, if they saw them under assault. All black men are considered dangerous, and shooting at them is codified by the law. If an officer feels threatened, they have a license to shoot and kill, so being perceived as a threat makes one a threat. You can comply, like Philandro Castile. You can do exactly as you're told, like this still-unnamed officer. No matter.
