So a mob can burn down a business one thousand miles from where a white police officer uses exessive force to kill a certified piece of shit, and all is cool.

A preacher protests to protest the slaughter of innocent life...JAIL.

I know, I know, this incongruity is all to familiar to us Freepers, but Hell's bells people..

There are no limits to tyranny...
