How Big is the Racism Wave?

     I've been reading about this shooting in Pasadena, CA involving multiple police officers and a young black man.  In an attempt to draw attention and blame from the local police department, charges have been brought against the man who made a 911 call to inform the authorities of a robbery.  The VICTIM of the robbery claimed that he was robbed at gunpoint.  This triggered the local police to be on high alert as they sought the perpetrators.  As local law enforcement officials pursued the suspects of this ROBBERY, they attempted to stop the suspects in an alley, however, the suspects continued to flee and disregarded the warnings the law enforcement officials gave them.  After cornering the suspects and continuously warning them to halt, one of the suspects reached toward his mid-section triggering an offensive attack from the authorities.  Unfortunately a young man died.  With the recent outrage of the shooting death of a Florida youth, this occurrence is also being regarded as another racial profiling issue, however, this story is much different.  The young man who was shot to death in Florida committed no crime.  He was simply minding his own business on his way home from a trip to the convenient store.  He was confronted (and most likely attacked) by a rogue security watch captain and inexplicably shot to his death.  The young man in Pasadena was a party to a ROBBERY.  He stole another person's belongings and fled.  The police were notified.  Yes, it has come to light that the VICTIM of the ROBBERY exaggerated the situation by saying that the robbers had a gun, but even after attempting to peacefully acquire the assailants, they chose to flee.  Even when these thieves were completely cornered and had no where to turn, they did not give up on their beliefs that they could evade the police.  When one of the young men reached towards his waste line, the officers felt the need to imply force.  Multiple shots were fired from two different police officers, resulting in the death of a young black man.  This was, by no means, a racial profiling problem.  This was a matter of THIEVES trying to escape JUSTICE.  The sad thing is, if they had gone peacefully, no one would have gotten hurt.  The lack of respect for authority in this situation led to the death of a young man.  His actions speak a thousand times louder than words.  You do not steal from others.  You do not run from the police.  You do not attempt to pull something from your waste line when you are being pursued by police.  When authorities are chasing you and warning you to FREEZE, you should freeze.  Owing up to the robbery of a backpack would have been severely less consequential then the outcome of this tragedy, but by no means was this young man's life lost due to negligence or "racial profiling".  This young man reaped what he sowed by stealing and attempting to flee from the authorities.
