One of the likely and unfortunate consequences of the high-profile police shootings of black men is that police will reduce their patrols of poor black neighbourhoods. And the people who will suffer most from that is other blacks.

Affluenza doesn't ring a bell?
There are black men in jail for marijuana possession who got more time than that kid got for actually killing people. You think if that kid was a poor black guy, he wouldn't spend most of his life in jail after ending the lives of 4 other people?
