In just the last few days, two more officers have been killed, one in Texas and one in Illinois.

Despite the lack of evidence that there IS an increase in cops shooting blacks, a few recent killings of blacks by cops has spawned the #BlackLivesMatter movement.

Last year, 6000 blacks killed other blacks, dwarfing the tiny number of blacks killed by cops. Nearly all the cops who killed blacks--and whites for that matter--are vindicated by an investigation or not charged by a grand jury or are acquitted 100 by a jury.

In Chicago alone, 40 people are killed each month, most of them black.

And 75% of the cases are unsolved! 

Crickets.

The death of 25-year-old Freddie Gray had sparked rioting and days of protests in the US East Coast port city over alleged police racism and brutality.

But the mood on the streets was drastically different on Saturday, with people singing and dancing as they cheered the charges including second-degree murder and manslaughter laid against the six police officers -- three of them black.

As calm gradually returned to the city, the governor of Maryland state urged residents to make Sunday a day of "prayer and peace".

"I pray that tomorrow will be a day of reflection and will serve as a foundation for how we all conduct ourselves in the days and months to come," Governor Larry Hogan said in a statement.
