If you know that most of the young African American men shot since this incident were shot by a peer, you'd know how many in total were shot.

Minus one on account of Ferguson. Hence the uproar.

Eric Holder Authorizes Second Autopsy Of Michael Brown

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/0...n_5685747.html

Quote:
Attorney General Eric Holder has authorized a second autopsy of Michael Brown, the unarmed African American teenager shot to death by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri on August 9.

"Due to the extraordinary circumstances involved in this case and at the request of the Brown family, Attorney General Holder has instructed Justice Department officials to arrange for an additional autopsy to be performed by a federal medical examiner," Justice Department spokesman Brian Fallon said in a Sunday statement. "This independent examination will take place as soon as possible. Even after it is complete, Justice Department officials still plan to take the state-performed autopsy into account in the course of their investigation."

Good plan.

Nothing negates conspiracy like a second confirming review.
