I have to wonder, though, how many more incidents will it take?

Stark Racial Divisions in Reactions to Ferguson Police Shooting.  (Pew Research, 8/18/2014)

The new national survey by the Pew Research Center, conducted Aug. 14-17 among 1,000 adults, finds that the public overall is divided over whether Brown’s shooting raises important issues about race or whether the issue of race is getting more attention than it deserves: 44% think the case does raise important issues about race that require discussion, while 40% say the issue of race is getting more attention than it deserves.


The biggest shift occurred among Independents.
