Fundamental problems exist with those soundbytes: each assumes all blacks are same, all 'blues' are same, and all whites are same. Extremist rhetoric reasons that way. That simply makes many emotional and sometimes angry.
In a tiny minority of cases, some blacks and some 'blues' "do not matter". Some cops become an enemy of people they are suppose to protect. Some blacks are violent criminals. No soundbyte accurately discriminates between a righteous majority and a few bad eggs. Every conclusion must be made on a 'case by case' basis.
