I have no opinion about the guilt or innocence of the police officer in the Ferguson shooting. I have not seen enough evidence to have even a remotely well-informed opinion. (And you probably haven't seen enough evidence either).
But one issue that the Ferguson incident raises is that a troubling number of men are killed by police officers. For every 21 black males shot by police, 1 white male is shot. But did you know that for every 11 women that are killed by police, the police kill 415 men. That is 1 woman for every 37 males. Is this a case of institutionalized misandry? I think the answer is obvious. ThatT
