What If The Cop Was Black

 I have been asked, I am assuming since I am a black man, by some of my friends and or associates, what do I think of the Micheal Brown shooting.

So here is my opinion, and this is solely my opinion.

 From watching the whole ordeal on TV of coarse, you know the media will blow as much as they can completely out of proportion, and then try to retract their statements if they are wrong. 

 Not taking sides, or try to figure out who is right/wrong, I think the blame should go on both sides!

 Reason being, from what I have read, heard, understood, Mr. Brown was wrong, for shop lifting. If he would not have taken what did not rightfully belong to him, then maybe, just maybe Officer Wilson, would not attempted to stop, apprehend, and or Kill Mr. Brown.

 Another Reason, if there had already been a history of Racial Stereotyping, already present in the Ferguson P.D. then maybe, just maybe Mr. Brown, would not have felt like he needed to forcefully defend himself from Officer Wilson, which led to his unfortunate death!

 I am not trying to take sides, and not because I am black, but it is my strong belief that this is a very unpleasant incandescent for both sides.

Now I have a question for you, what if the shoe was on the other foot, would we be discussing this?

 I mean what if the cop/officer was Black, and it was a white/Caucasian kid that he killed, would we even be talking about this, would the people of Ferguson MI,as well as the other states be rioting? I honestly do not think so.

 Not to mention, isn't there a better way to try to come to a positive conclusion, other than destroying, businesses, especially the black owned ones.

 It seems to me, that we as African Americans, and or Black people, should work on ways to uplift our race, and not create more situations, that would add to our destruction.
