There were no news reports of riots and looting in Salt Lake City! This wasn't even mentioned in the national media. It seems that this story doesn't cause an outrage and isn't mentioned because it isn't profitable. Most of the people who speak and act the loudest about the situation in Ferguson, Missouri but don't bother to mention the Salt Lake City story are as much or more racist than people that they are accusing of being racist? By the way, has anyone noticed that a lot of the people who use the race issue in Missouri managed to profit from the situation: the looters with the stuff that they stole; the Rev. Al Sharpton, who got some national exposure and as a result probably an increase in donations to his "ministry" then finally the media who helped to insight anger then get more ad revenue from the higher ratings. Something is really wrong here!
The shooting in this case is probably completely justified, I am almost always going to give the benefit of the doubt to the cops. We don’t know yet exactly what happened with this case, but for some reason the media is remaining silent. That’s the way it

I truly don't know much about the Salt Lake City riots. Why would you say they might be more racist?

The people who complain about racism in regards the incident in Ferguson, Missouri, (where a black man is shot and killed by a white police officer ) but say nothing about the Salt Lake City incident (where an unarmed young white man is shot by a black police officer.). Shouldn't both stories be mentioned by those who are supposedly protesting again racism?
