But then again, as fascistic Police can be, it's only men and women, some are more responsible and conscious about their role and use, some just enjoy having authority and impunity and had nothing else to do in their life. We can't judge the entire police corp, tho we can judge people giving directives, using police to serve a politic of numbers and statistics etc...

Also I'm really not sure the death of Mike Brown has something to do with racism, we'll never know. But there sure is an ambiant smell of racism all over the place , because people are stupid and uneducated, it doesn't matter if they're cops or civilians.

Uh, cops are trying to protect people from looters and rioters. It's the police's job, and they are doing it.

While it's unfortunate that businesses have been looted and burnt down, there's no need to kill a young man.

Your innocent comment reveals a deep dangerous aspect of why things go this way : human life doesn't have much importance anymore, actually life in general doesn't have much importance.
Some people just can't take it anymore, and some only know violence to answer with. That's a sad observation, but we actually live in a sad world for most people.

Um, the kid got killed first, not the looting.

Violence is not the answer. Degenerating to looting and rioting is not the answer.
<Faint> the rules have been stated quite clearly 3 times now from high staff
