HOW MANY BLACK BODIES IS IT GOING TO TAKE?

How many black bodies is it going to take before this country wakes up to the extreme discrepancy between prosecutions against African Americans and whites?????

E.g., if a white kid had been killed by a black cop in Ferguson I can guarantee you that black cop would be incarcerated right now. I guess that's why we never hear about such a thing occurring.
