Don't forget what happened to Reginald Denny too....that should be included in the discussion.
I agree that a lot of the problems we are having are driven by the media.
I also think that every time we needed Obama to step up and lead when it came to possible racial conflicts....he didn't, and actually made things worse. (i.e. Cops were stupid, if I had a son he'd look like..., etc.)
The president needs to unite...he his the president of the entire US, not just those he chooses.
