Wade Michael Page was, among other things, a musician. The man who, on August 5, stormed into a Sikh temple outside Milwaukee, Wis., and opened fire, killing six worshippers and wounding several others, was the singer of a hardcore band called End Apathy.

Once again another young Black man has been shot and killed, under highly questionable circumstances, by a representative of law enforcement.
