To those who think there's nothing inherently racist about the handling of the Brown case: St Louis County DA McCullough just ran unopposed for reelection despite a longstanding negative reputation in the local black community. How is this possible? The county is 70% white and 23% black.
Thus far, the only prominent dissents against McCullough's handling of the case have come from the black community. The white community is essentially silent on the issue, or vocally supportive. Without some pushback from the white voters, McCullough has ZERO chance of suffering any political fallout from this.
White prosecutor in a county with a white supermajority exonerates white cop for shooting an unarmed black man. Tell me again that has nothing to do with race.
