190200, How do you know people are not outraged again?
Posted by EAS, Sun Jul-26-15 04:49 PM
Is it because Blacks are a monolithic group who express fear and outrage the same way? Just because people don't respond how you want them to doesn't mean there is apathy or there is less concern.

I went to bet.com and read
Arnesha Bowers: Baltimore Outraged Over Sexual Assault and Killing of Teen

So I do believe people are just as outraged about other killings/attacks as well as those perpetrated by the police. They may not always go on social media to express that outrage though. And I think that last straw that sends people over the edge regarding police is, like I said before, justice not coming to guilty cops.

It's a skewed perception. So just because the social media may be disproportionate, doesn't mean the Black fear of police is irrational.
