[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 3245218, member: 5391"] I seriously doubt it. The myth that cops deliberately target Black people is so pervasive that I don't think anything will reach some of them. The riots in Ferguson, MO, was triggered by the lie that Michael Brown was shot while he had his hands up. The media feeds this stuff by exhibiting what former CBS reporter Bernie Goldberg calls 'good racial manners'. This is the practice of de-emphasizing race when Blacks are the perpetrators while shouting it from the rooftops if they are the alleged victims. It means a constant narrative of Blacks as victims of White racism with said racism being the root cause of all the problems that Black people confront. I think this was also one of the reasons the media went after George Zimmerman as hard as they did: simple virtue signalling. [/QUOTE]
