Members of the NAACP held a protest Wednesday afternoon outside of the Baton Rouge Metro Council chambers. The organization wants a federal investigation into Friday’s shooting death of a black businessman.
George Temple, 24, was shot and killed by a citizen while he was fighting with a Baton Rouge Police officer. Officer Brian Harrison had pulled Temple over and wrote him a ticket for cutting off a funeral procession.
”You want to have the right conclusion, and you want to act upon the right information, and so I would hope that people would be willing to let those of us who are involved in any process who have a certain responsibility to do it correctly. Let us do it correctly, and there will be the correct outcome,” District Attorney Doug Moreau said.

Check out the original story.
The guy attacked a police officer! The officer was yelling for help. The man was wrestling the officer for his gun. The citizen gave the “victim” repeated warnings to get off the officer. Why in God’s name does there need to be a federal investigation? Is it because the “victim” was black and the shooter was white? Is there a federal investigation every time some hood kills a white person? Of course not! You hear about blacks shooting people every day on the news, but as soon as a black guy gets shot by a white guy, the idiots are protesting for a federal investigation. What is wrong with you people? I’m sick of hearing blacks complain about racism, they’re the ones who are racist!
Please don’t get me wrong, I’m not a racist... I have many black friends who are fine, upstanding citizens. None of them were down at the Metro Council protesting, or fighting with police officers, or shooting people... they’re at work taking care of their responsibilities like the rest of us.
