White Police Officer Shoots and Kills Black Teenager in St. Louis Suburb. . . Again

By Douglas V. Gibbs

It was bound to happen, because trouble-makers were sure to figure the police would be stepping lightly on pins and needles.  The anarchists and the Black Nationalist crowd have been looking for confrontations, hoping for another altercation, because the extremists of liberal left progressivism wants chaos.  They desire to agitate.  Agitation and crisis is how socialist tyrannies come into power.

The shooting, yesterday, where a white police officer killed a black teenager who was allegedly armed in a St. Louis suburb late Tuesday, was followed by a small protest and four arrests at the scene of the shooting.

Accusations that white cops are racist have been a large part of the demonstrations nationwide following the deaths of Michael Brown, and Eric Garner.  The facts regarding the death of Antonio Martin, 18 years old, will not matter, because all the opportunists will see is that a white cop used deadly force against a black teen.

The latest chapter in Missouri shootings of black teens by police happened in Berkeley, Missouri, a St. Louis suburb just miles from the town of Ferguson.  Ferguson was the site of the death of an unarmed black teenager, Michael Brown, by a white police officer which led to violent protests, and nationwide demonstrations.

Berkeley officials moved quickly to keep the public from drawing a connection to Ferguson. Berkeley’s population is more than 80% black, and Mayor Theodore Hoskins pointed to its large number of black police officers and he and other elected officials who are African-American. In Ferguson, the city’s population is two-thirds African-American, while its city council and police force are largely white.

The mayor also said, unlike Ferguson, the shooting was captured on a surveillance camera and a weapon was recovered on the scene.

The protesters don't care what the mayor says, what the evidence says, or what the facts say.  All they know is they are looking for another reason to blame whitey so that they can burst into another season of violence, and blame racism on their anger, rather than accept the consequences for their actions.  The call if for rage, and a fundamental transformation of America through mob violence, and accusations of racism.
