And there is an enormous disparity in the violence between the two groups. Perhaps more violent communities (of any race) have more violent confrontations with police.

And I'm not arguing that cops aren't overzelous shitheads a lot. Or that there is almost no oversight. Just that this particular case is a poor one to use to make that point. Brown was a violent criminal who was shot in the act of committing a felony. The lesson in this case should be not to attack people who might have guns because they can and will use them against you to defend themselves.
