Is the situation in Ferguson, MO improving?

Asked by filmfann (52225points) August 15th, 2014

Unarmed 18 year old Michael Brown was shot dead by the police. He was about to enter college. He had his hands above his head. He was shot by the police for no reason. Another black teen shot dead by the racist cops.

Oh, wait.

The cop that shot him is black.
And a video has just been released showing Michael Brown strong arming a convenience store clerk, while allegedly stealing some cigarillos.
And his friend just admitted Brown did steal from the store.
And another witness saw Brown reach into the police vehicle and struggle with the officer.

Does this change anything? Is it okay that an 18 year black teen was shot while his arms were raised and he was unarmed?
