People Power

Another senseless killing of an unarmed black man, another non-indictment, cue mass protests.  Rinse and repeat.   It seems there is an endless list of these seemingly random killings these days and more and more outrage as a result.  While each incident is treated as a singular killing, the cumulative effect is beginning to move the debate on racial profiling and police brutality.  Can this nation treat a significant number of its citizens the way an occupying power treats conquered subjects?   I guess we may find the answers over the next few years.
