To be fair, I watch almost zero television. You mention that "everyone you come in contact with", etcetera. Might I be so bold as to point out that this reminds me of when Nixon was elected, and a journalist remarked, "How could that happen? Nobody I know voted for him!"

People of color who I am friends with in other venues see Michael Brown in a mythical, holy light. People of color who are otherwise reasonable.

They are investing a lifetime of personally-experienced police harassment into him.

I threw out the house TV in ‘88. I’ve never looked back.

It does not matter who votes. It matters who counts the votes.
