Basically a white cop shot a thug, who happened to be black. The next day, before any facts were released, Al Sharpton and others protested calling it a hate crime. The cop wasn't indicted, like the cop in NY who choked a suspect and wasn't indicted. Similarly, the cop was white and suspect black. A couple days ago two NY cops were executed in their squad car by a black man who supported ISIS(he's dead). The 2 dead cops aren't white and this will not be tried as a hate crime. Basically most of the protesters in Ferguerson and NY are violent, assaulting cops and looting stores in Ferguerson. So in review, you have governments taking the side of the protesters instead of the cops and violence has continued because of it.
