“Everyone is aware by now of another Trayvon Martin situation, this time in Ferguson, Missouri. An unarmed black teenager was shot and killed by a white police officer.”
In view of the fact that the opening two sentences establish a lie as the premises for the article I read no further. For anyone who could get past this is there anything of value here?
I’m lost, what’s the lie here? This matter in Ferguson is similar to the Martin case. In both an unarmed black teenager was shot and killed. Yes, the circumstances surrounding how they got shot are different. In Martin a private citizen defended himself, in this new case a police officer was involved though because the investigation isn’t complete the circumstances of the shooting aren’t known yet.
