Default Can someone please explain this to me?

A few days ago in Ferguson, Missouri, a white police
officer shot and
killed a black teenager named Michael Brown. The police
say Michael
Brown had been struggling with the police officer for his
gun. Eye
witnesses say that Michael Brown was shot with his hands
in the air
signifying he was complying with the police commands.

But now, despite the family of Michael Brown calling for
peace, there
is rioting and looting in the town of Ferguson, mostly by
black men
and women that didn't even know Michael Brown.

Can someone explain to me how black people rioting and
looting before
the trial of the officer involved in any way helps to:

1. determine the facts of the Brown shooting, or

2. improve race relations in Ferguson, Missouri, or

3. change people's perception of black people across your
great
nation?

Pardon me for being blunt, but is this not simply black
people looting
under the guise of racial anger? That is, how many of
those looters
even knew who Michael Brown was? And, how many of them
are more
concerned about race relations in Ferguson, Missouri than
they are
about the street value of the tablet computer they stole.

If it were a black officer having been accused of shooting
and
killing a white teen with his hands up in a gesture of
surrender,
would there be white people breaking into liquor stores
and
electronic shops to steal liquor and electronics?


i think this explains alot
