Has White America "Set-itself-Up??
From my perhaps unique, perspective, McKinney (suburb of Dallas), Texas, is very different from Ferguson, MO, and, even Baltimore, MD!! Ferguson is "down-scale" Suburban; while McKinney is more "Up-Scale" ,,, (there's more Money there). Baltimore represents classic Urban America. What is true in all three places is that the Cops represent "Blue-Collar" White America: educationally, financially, and in Mind-Set! Their World View is Minimal; yet they are armed, and empowered by White America to KILL; in the name of Public Safety. White America has, and continues to provide these guys "Knee-jerk" support; so long as they do not infringe on interests of those Citizens who are "higher in Class".
Over the years, this has translated to Skin Color, in that it has been less than a century that Cops and Fireman were not "all White"! In some places, for less than a few decades; while in others there are NO non-white Cops or Firemen serving in 2015. This intersection of Economic Class, Race, and Cultural Limitations, with Black and Brown Citizens who have, for many decades, "done better"; is causing a National RASH of White Cops "Reverting to Type" with little, or no provocation!
McKinney shows "up-scale" Whites what may lie in store for them; if the GOP drags their "Neanderthals" into Power in 2016! Many of the candidates running are reaching "up" from their rather dire economic beginnings. Whites who fit this description are much more vicious in their Racial Attitudes; as they become insensed by the tensions of Global Competition.
During my youth in Missouri, it was "standard" for white males to get their first car before finishing High School. If they were "sick of school", their Dads could get them a blue-collar job; they could marry their High School Sweet-heart, and their lives were "Set"! That path is dead, today. The Police Force, the Fire-House, and the Military, are their only paths still open. Even these opportunities are beginning to demand more education and sophistication than the average white guy achieves in this country.
Stay Vigilant! It is getting harder and harder for MEDIA to ignore the fact that something, really UGLY, may be lurking behind these incidents, and they are no longer "immune"!
