Shh. When a black felon shoots and kills a white cop, it’s not news worthy. There are no riots, no looting, no Al Sharpton or Jesse Jackson to stir up trouble. 32-year-old police officer Daryl Pierson of the Rochester, NY Police Department was shot and killed on September 3rd by a black felon and yet you don’t hear a thing about it. The ‘alleged’ shooter is Thomas Johnson III, a black felon who has an extensive criminal history in two states and was paroled for a second time (after violating the terms of his first parole). No signs of 40 FBI agents being sent to New York, or Eric Holder’s DOJ getting involved in this racially motivated shooting. Thomas Johnson III survived and is currently satisfactory condition.

Just like the shooting in Ferguson, there was a racial disparity between the cop and the suspect. Unlike Ferguson, however, the decedent was white, and the perpetrator, allegedly one Thomas Johnson III, is black. News reports indicate that the alleged shooter has an extensive criminal history in two states and was paroled for a second time (after violating the terms of his first parole) less than one month before the shooting.
There were no reports of angry RPD officers looting, rioting, or committing arson in black neighborhoods. There were no reports of mobs of RPD officers standing in front of black citizens with their hands in the air shouting, “Police, don’t shoot!” There are no known videos of Ofc. Pierson robbing material for blunts from a convenience store prior to his death.
The Department of Justice did not dispatch 40 FBI agents to Rochester to investigate the alleged shooter’s background. Neither Al Sharpton nor Jesse Jackson has arrived in Rochester yet. Attorney General Eric Holder has not personally flown into Rochester to meet the victim’s family and announce a Department of Justice investigation into the incident. Gov. Andrew Cuomo has not come to Rochester to publicly demand a “vigorous prosecution” of the suspect. New York State Police have not been dispatched to quell the nonexistent cop riots. The New York State National Guard has not been called out to quell the nonexistent riots, either.
