If a police officer kills an unarmed person at a traffic stop, please quantify your emotional response to the following, relative to when a white male police officer kills an unarmed black male:
-
The police officer is a white male and the victim is a white male
-
The police officer is a black male and the victim is a black male
-
The police officer is a black female and the victim is a white male
-
The police officer is a white female and the victim is a black male
-
All the other combinations
** NO, we don't care about people who are not white or black. Don't let Asian Hatred fool you, WE, the authors of this puzzle, do not care. -
Please name a single black person killed by another black person in Chicago. Without googling.

I was surprised by the manslaughter charges brought against the woman police officer that confused her gun for a tazer.
I did a bit of Googling to try to find manslaughter charges against people for on the job deaths. All I could find was a couple of cases against company executives where there negligence to following safety rules led to deaths of their workers.
I couldn't find a single case against Joe Blow that pushed the red button before checking and Wendy Worker got crushed in the machinery.

It's almost as if police officers are held to statistically impossible standards, by the very same people whose panties would become immediately bunched if they needed a police officer.

It seems to me that what she did would be akin to a surgeon making a blunder and killing a patient.
What happens in this situation?

I would suspect that manslaughter is out of the equation. But then, we don't have media stories 24/7 about how surgeons hate black people.
What if sturgeons hated black people? Probably no better way to get back at them than presenting their eggs as supposedly "fine fare". Ridiculous.
