Glad the deputy was able to get the BG. I am just wondering about this sentence in the report:
Dalton is white and Martes was black.

Why is that even necessary to report? A criminal is a criminal, no matter their race. Would the situation be changed if the BG was white and the deputy black? Sounds like the reporter has an agenda.

I watched the video of that conference and I noticed the chief gave the ages/races of every individual that he brought up. Seems like he was just being thorough and giving all identifying information and we know the media is going to play up the race aspect.

As an American, of white and black decent, it makes me upset that race is even an issue. A criminal is a criminal, no matter their race, age, sex, or what shoe they put on first. :mad5
