We're the "Only Ones" Who Can Not Tell Black From White!

I try to follow articles like the one from the Denver Post that follows to find out how many times the bg's had been previously arrested. This article did not mention anything about previous arrests, but I did notice something very strange:

Denver police search for shooting suspect

Two, possibly three, carjacking suspects in Westminster fired shots at police this afternoon while leading them on a high-speed chase through the industrial area north of Denver, at I-70 and Washington Street west of the Colliseum.

No officers were hit.

A gray van crashed at 38th and Delgany Streets. Officers captured at least one suspect and possibly two. A third man, initially described as a thin black man in his 20s wearing a black hooded sweatshirt and armed with a .22 caliber pistol, ran from the scene.

Officers from Denver, Westminster, Federal Heights, Adams County and the state patrol set up a perimeter to search for the man. The perimeter ran roughly along Washington Street from 38th Avenue to I-70 and along 45th Avenue from Pearl Street toward Broadway. A number of schools in the area were locked down, to prevent the students from leaving and also to prevent anyone from entering. Traffic in the area quickly clogged the streets outside of the perimeter.

The suspect reportedly was seen several times, once near the South Platte River running south toward downtown Denver. Officers said he was carrying a rifle.

A short while later, police changed the description of the suspect to a white male in his 20s, wearing a blue sweatshirt and carrying an assault rifle.

The chase began shortly after noon today. Officers were sill looking for the man three hours later.

The eye witnesses to the suspect escaping from the crash were police officers who described the man as a young black man in a hoodie with a .22 pistol. It appears that the suspect somehow morphed into a young white man, wearing a blue sweatshirt and carrying an assault rifle.

I did not post this story in an attempt to bash police officers, but to point out that they are just people, like the rest of us. Gun grabbers often insist that police officers are the "only ones" trained and professional enough to carry firearms. David Codrea over at The War on Guns is collecting stories like this one as proof of the flawed reasoning behind that statement.
