    The Falsely Accused In July of 2016, Micah Johnson interrupted a “Black Lives Matter” protest to attack the police officers who were protecting the participants in the march. Out of malice, he murdered five officers whose intent was only to keep the people safe. Blind vengeance caused this killer to take matters into his own hands resulting in the death of five innocent men. The hysteria in the Salem witch trials is similar to the hysteria towards police officers now because they both are being blamed with no evidence, being blamed out of vengeance, and or being blamed from what society pushes.…
