Judges and juries keep acquitting the cops that Black Lives Matter call racist

Prejudging the case as an example of “systemic” racism, Obama sent an army of prosecutors to investigate Wilson for discrimination, while sending emissaries to Brown’s funeral.

It’s a familiar pattern: Some witnesses embellish or outright lie about what they saw and outrage goes viral — before jurors discover through the actual facts that what looked like another wrenching case of police brutality was actually police largely going by the book — and certainly not acting like the monsters they were made out to be.

The same patterns appears to be playing out in the new Minneapolis and Baton Rouge police-shooting cases. In the first case, a witness changed her story about what happened. In the latter, a BLM activist has been caught editing video to only show one side of what happened — the side that, of course, puts cops in the worst light possible.
