It's called "Police Brutality"

[SHRED]

I think we get lost in the racial element sometimes and the other side dilutes the argument with race.

Of course there are racists in law enforcement I'm not saying that.

We need to first ask the other side do they even acknowledge police brutality exists?

I'm white and I've been a victim.

"I'm white and I've been a victim..."

Me too... though were I black, it wouldn't have been limited to only one time, regardless of whether I think you're diluting the wholly relevant and critical racial aspect.

2. I'm sorry if it came across that way

My intention wasn't to dilute anything.

3. It goes far beyond that. Even in encounters that don't end badly, black people are far too often

treated with disrespect and outright contempt by the police. For no reason other than racism.

4. But on a purely numbers basis the ratio is suffered by the black community far more than

the white.

I'm sad you have been a victim of police brutality.

Myself, my sister, mother, father, grandmother, grandfather, and about 3/4 of my friends have also been the victim. Many of us more than once.

5. Understood

I guess the point I was attempting centered on when talking to others who deny police racism. I was thinking of reaching them with the police brutality angle.
Probably a waste of time however.
