Racist much? Not only is it racist but it's also nonsensical if for no other reason that the strength of the FPD is nowhere near 10% of the total population to say nothing of the equitable ratio of black to white officers.

Ferguson has 53 officers, three of whom are black. That's a little less than 6% black in a town where 2/3 of the population is black.

So, the relevant challenge is: "Find me 6.7 qualified black police officers for every ten officers."
