Read the comments section of the NYT article on the Baton Rouge killing.

They are complaining that the liberal media doesn't report on police shootings of white people.

These were not good people any way. In other words, they probably deserved what they got.

You can't see what happened in the video.

They should have obeyed.

Etc.

Apparently 600 police shootings isn't enough to take action. My guess is they if they number were doubled, it would make no difference.
