The racism is not just the police brutality issues, its the systematic disenfranchisement and poverty that !@$#! posted about. The rioting is more because of that then just the cops, the cops sparked the powder keg but the larger issues were the powder itself that is exploding.

And yes, the media is making a bigger deal of the unrest and totally ignoring the other peaceful demonstrations happening. They are portraying the stereotype of the "scary black man" but not showing the bigger picture of what is happening. They did the same thing with Ferguson. Its a feeding frenzy because a large segment of white buyers want to see bullshit that supports their prejudice and they are spending the $ to do it so the infotainment industry is happy to oblige.
