But did you notice how everyone picks a side even before the facts are confirmed?
The MSNBC crowd got it wrong with Ferguson.
The FOX crowd lined up behind the cops in the Eric Garner case regardless of the video.
Nobody could really argue about Walter Scott since it was all on video (MSNBC used it as wallpaper, FOX just barely dealt with it).
And now with Baltimore, everybody's right back to their entirely predictable position.

We have a black President. So why do so many grow up urban, black and poor? Why are black cops often called uncle Tom's or traitors by the black community? Is self improvement not a black thing, or off limits? Pretty much every job I had in my life had minorities employed also, and not just blacks.
The hardest part of doing nothing is knowing when your done.
