It's not right, but how much longer can it go on, where apparently innocent blacks get shot before it seems like a logical consequence that random innocent white cops are shot? And don't get me wrong; I think I've established my opinion well that I've no quarrel with perps of any race being shot while committing crimes.

The Minnesota Cop was Mexican, and it appears the Black passenger had the gun on his lap, and did not follow instructions.
