Why did the Walter Scott run? So far there have been no good, innocent, cooperative black men that we know of killed by police. 

Whites should not be eager to appease blacks and agree with them when they are wrong. Wait and see when you do not know what the truth is.

In America, suspects are to be considered innocent until proven guilty—innocent unless proven guilty. 

Is it such a great idea to have citizens using video cameras on police, or body cameras for police? Imagine if you were trying to do your job and your boss had someone following you around with a camera. Why don't they take cameras into the inner cities and scrutinize the thugs and Planned Parenthood abortion mills? Why are they only doing it to cops? 

BACKGROUND:
33-year-old white former police officer Michael Slager was fired and charged with murder after killing 50-year-old black man Walter Scott on Saturday, April 4th, 2015, in North Charleston, South Carolina. 

Former officer Michael Slager first pulled over Walter Scott for a broken tail light. Police dash cam shows that Walter Scott fled his Mercedes car on foot when Officer Slager returned to his patrol car for a moment. Witness cell phone video shows the white officer and black man had physical contact, but the black man ran away; the cell phone video shows the white former officer Michael Slager shooting the black man Walter Scott in the back as Scott ran away. Slager fired eight shots, hitting Scott five times, including once in the ear, and once in the heart. 

The New York Times says that Michael T. Slager said he had feared for his life because the man had taken his stun gun in a scuffle after a traffic stop, but Walter L. Scott fled apparently unarmed. The North Charleston mayor announced state charges at a news conference Tuesday, April 7th, 2015.

Walter Scott had four children and a warrant for his arrest for delinquency on unpaid child support payments. Dash cam and cell phone videos show him running from the officer twice, and apparently struggling with the officer before he fled the second time.
