Oh, horseshit
Nice retort.
He has talked about police state, militarization of the police and racial inequality in the justice system for a very long time.

I'm not equating. 15=/= 1. 1 is too many, but 15 is way, way too many.
What are their names?

What is your argument? That we should ignore that Michael Brown was shot by a police officer, or that we should also have protests for the 15 victims in Chicago that can be violently broken up by police?
I need a decoder ring to determine which shootings spark outrage. When does Rev Al touch down in Chicago?
Said nothing in that article that he has not championed his whole political life.
Would it outrage you if a police officer shot an unarmed 18 year old?
You should keep a look out for violent acts and murders committed by public servants. People who are entrusted, even paid, to protect the public are naturally more scrutinized than ordinary citizens.I need a decoder ring to determine which shootings spark outrage.

Given the circumstances and violence surrounding the incident, the prudent thing to do is withhold his name for his safety and that of his family until the investigation is complete. It isn't unheard of to see this done. It's just that it is uncommon to see this kind of reaction to your run-of-the-mill shooting.
And that he is a cop does make it a different circumstance. It is a shooting in the line of duty. The usual thing is suspension and relegation to desk work pending the outcome of the investigation. Shooting somebody is actually within the scope of his duty, which is why there is a process in place to address it and determine whether he acted outside the scope of his duties in using deadly force.

How what works?
Unless the President droning American citizens without due process. Yes we can, or something.
Almost as much as it would outrage me if political leadership and the media largely ignored a homicide epidemic in a major American city.
Just so I don't forget, jhmd, what are their names?
