Here we have a 6' 4" 300 lbs felony strong armed robbery suspect physically assaulting a police officer and the cop should not have shot, yet a 12 year old having a toy gun in his waist band deserves immediate execution.
I will put it down to years of propaganda in which the word "gun" causes a pavlov's dog reaction.

European astronomers using ESO’s Very Large Telescope have found that the rotation axes of quasars are parallel to each other over very long distances and tend to be aligned with the so-called large-scale structures in which the quasars reside.

I know you have a desire to make it about race, but this case is not. It is about a strong arm robbery and assault on a police officer.

However, I don't think the Brown case rises to manslaughter. I can't speak to the 12 year old, there's not enough information yet. I don't believe the Brown case is a deliberate whitewash by the grand jury, nor do I think the public reaction is justified.
