Swedish commentary links US police shooting to race

Original: Här måste du vara flykting för att ingen ska bry sig om hur du dog. I USA räcker det med att bara vara svart. http:// mo

A Swedish-language comment reacting to the New York Times report that a North Charleston, South Carolina police officer was charged with murder in the death of Walter Scott, a black man shot while fleeing. The commenter argues that in the US being black alone is enough for no one to care how you die, contrasting this with how refugees' deaths draw attention in Sweden.

Why now: The murder charge against a police officer for shooting a fleeing black man reignited debate over police violence and race in America.
