Um, this is sad but its not sadder than the black lives that are lost everyday both at the hands of police and at the hands of other blacks. This is not more worth of attention because they are cops. So, for folks to say that things are escalating have no clue what they are talking about because when hundreds of unarmed blacks are killed every year by law enforcement, that should have been seen as an escalation to you guys as well. Every day on Facebook, people would post videos of police brutality but it only get serious for you guys when an officer is killed.  This tension has always exsisted but now some people are fighting back in the most grusome and violent way.   Suprised it took this long really.  Real effort must be made to intergrate police into the communities that they are serving better to build trust.  If you don't want to talk about that then you are just pining over dead bodies without regard for the cause.
