The first mistake made by many Conservatives is to "try to judge a group of people" who probably differ profoundly among themselves.

They may or may not wish to expose themselves to public attention by speaking out about Ferguson, or anything else. And why should they have to? They don't owe anything to the dysfunctional black welfare underclass. They worked hard and risked a lot to get away from the Michael Browns of the world.
Most of them likely just want to enjoy what Justice Benjamin Cardozo called the fundamental American right: The right to be let alone.
So whites should refrain from addressing the evil acts that whites commit?
That seems to be the message.
