Rollin Oliver, the man accused of killing a Denver police officer, claimed to be a member of the Park Hill Bloods street gang when he was booked into jail, according to documents obtained by The Denver Post.
Oliver, 21, is accused of shooting Officer Celena Hollis in the head as she attempted to help break up a fight between two groups of people during the City Park Jazz concert Sunday night.
Hollis, a 32-year-old single mother of a 12-year-old daughter, was working off-duty as part of a security detail at the concert when she was shot. She was in uniform.

Martinez said his department, which includes the police, sheriff's and fire departments, now releases more information about gang activity than it has in the past.

As you might have expected - they could not resist making Rollin Oliver the newest "Trayvon Martin". The "good White folks" at Ugly America have no idea how much their antics are merely a mirror image of what is seen among the Progressive-Fundamentalists - regardless of race. Their latest bag of tricks reminds me of the "Rep Gifford shooting" in Arizona and how their progressive adversaries were quick to stitch together a narrative" against their political adversaries. For some strange reason, however, the crazed gunman was not discussed in the context of a "deranged White killer", who's cultural and genetic tendencies made his actions predictable. I think that all of us would agree that if a person moved next door to you who looked like Jared Lee Loughner, you would:
