Hmmm...what's the difference here, South Carolina?

South Carolina police defend killing of Black man holding wooden stake

A South Carolina sheriff defended police officers who shot and killed a Black man on Saturday after he refused their orders to drop a wooden stake he was holding, The Associated Press reported. 

Richland County Sheriff Leon Lott said his officers attempted to use a Taser to subdue Irvin D. Moorer Charley but resorted to deadly force when the device failed and Moorer Charley allegedly charged Deputy Zachary Hentz, who shot him four times from a few feet away.

Did Police Take Dylann Roof to Burger King?

On the evening of 17 June 2015, nine churchgoers were gunned down at the historically significant Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in downtown Charleston, South Carolina. Less than a day later, suspect Dylann Storm Roof was arrested in Shelby, North Carolina, and charged with nine counts of murder.

After Roof was identified (and details of his life emerged), a number of controversies related to Roof and his actions became prominent subjects of online debate. On 21 June 2015, for example, the web site The Source raised eyebrows by publishing an article headlined “Police Chief Says Dylann Roof Was Taken to Burger King Shortly After Arrest.” The headline statement gave many readers pause, with some of them suspecting the article was of the prevalent “fake news” variety published simply to further enrage or agitate social media users.

The Source cited a Charlotte Observer article published three days earlier and headlined “Shelby police chief describes arrest of Charleston shooting suspect”:

In Shelby, the FBI handled Roof’s initial questioning, [Shelby police Chief Jeff] Ledford said. Shelby police’s lone conversation with the mass-murder suspect was about food. Earlier in the day, Roof had bought water and chips at a south Charlotte gas station. Now he was hungry. Police bought him food from a nearby Burger King, Ledford said.

Both in South Carolina, yet...

The black guy gets bullets.

The white guy who killed black people gets lunch.

I know what *I* think the reason for the different treatment is.
