How can it be both? The two options are opposing ideas.
so you still haven't addressed my first two questions:
Is your rationale that had the thief been described as white, and Ferrell ran towards him, Ferrell would've still been shot?
Is your rationale that had the thief been described as white, and Ferrell was white, and Ferrell ran towards him, he would not have been shot?

The two options are not opposing. They may be separate but they don't oppose each other.
Its just that priority is on the racial issue for good reason.
Racism is some kindergarten shyt and for cops to be engaging in such activity is a problem that needs to be addressed ASAP
You didnt answer either question I asked you.

This shyt hurts my heart, 
No, they are.
If you think that he was only shot for being black, I then ask was he profiled by the woman in the house for being black too? An issue that you've severely looked over because a cop was involved.
If you think its simply a question of an unarmed man being shot, then you acknowledge that race did not play a factor. You're acknowledging that as long as Ferrell matched the description on the 911 call he would've been shot. In other words your acknowledging that the officer was not mentally capable of being in the field. In other words your acknowledging that he did follow the proper procedures in an unknown environment.

I understand the woman cuz her her situation she didnt know what was up. She is a normal woman scared for her life, Anybody black or white knocking at your house would cause suspicion in anybody but you got to be retarded to think that the cop who was trained to handle things in a more non lethal way was in any way justified in shooting a man running toward them looking for help.
Typical cac logic, my POINT was, that someone could have been DYING at the scene, or needed help badly, yet instead of helping, SHE SHUT THE DOOR IN HIS FACE. WHo knows WHAT could've went on and what he have needed, but the FACT that he was a BLCK male raised AUTOMATIC suspicion.
The bytch did MORE than just called the police to assist in the situation, she PRESSED THE PANIC ALARM, MEANING SHE THOUGHT HER LIFE WAS IN DANGER ALL BECAUSE A BLACK MAN HAD THE NERVE TO KNOCK ON THE DOOR FOR HELP.
Stop trying to deflect and playdown this bytch's response to the situation which I have brought up, and think would she wouldve have called the police and press the button if he was ANYONE but a black male.
I guess that man in Stanton Island thought he was in danger too when a mother of two boys bagged for shelter doing the storm, FOH.
This bytch has INITIATED the threat-level to the area, by raising the panic alarm, which cause the police to be on high alert.
SO please, just stop the ignorance.
Holy shyt, they just don't give a fukk about black people in America do they?
I have never understood the rationale behind knocking on a complete stranger's door asking for help.That's what 911 is for.
That said, cop is entirely at fault.
Maybe he didn't have a phone at the time, shyt happens.

Please point out in my post where I said the cop was justified.

The way your downplaying it as non racist.

Cops are supposed to show some responsibility when dealing with people. Not shoot because you're being approached. People get afraid and call 911 all the time. It doesn't mean the responding officer should shoot the first person he sees.
