"First they came for the Communists,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Communist.
Then they came for the Jews,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I wasn’t a Jew.
Then they came for the Catholics,
and I didn’t speak up,
because I was a Protestant.
Then they came for me,
and by that time there was no one
left to speak up for me."

WSU 'Deadly Force' Lab Finds Racial Disparities in Shootings
Submitted by Emmett Harris on Mon, 2014-09-01 23:00
“Participants in … [a] study of deadly force were more likely to feel threatened in scenarios involving black people. But when it came time to shoot, participants were biased in favor of black suspects, taking longer to pull the trigger against them than against armed white or Hispanic suspects.” And yet, there is a “disproportionate number of ethnic and racial minorities shot by police.”
