- If you are a mentally slow African American attempting to sell loose cigarillos on a street corner (OMG - how horrible!), the police will choke you to death without any remorse whatsoever.
- If you are a minority with a busted tail light and make any body movement during a traffic stop, there's a chance the cop at the scene will shoot you.
- If you just killed 20 people at a busy shopping center, injured several dozen more, and are heavily armed, the police will allow you to be taken into custody "without incident."
Sounds about right.
You beat me to posting this.
Cops are willing to kill black people over frivolous “rules” or justify it by saying they “felt unsafe.” “Felt unsafe” means “I saw a black person, and I don’t like them.”
