4. The police "line" on the issue is that there is no such thing as racist police violence

and no such thing as excessive police use of force against people of color or anyone else. They believe that every black(or brown, or Native American or LGBTQ)person ever killed by the police had it coming.

And they also harbor the delusion that the only reason the Dallas killer massacred those officers was because BLM had raised the issue of police violence(as if no people of color would have been feeling anger about this were BLM not in existence).

And, possibly, some of the cops who walked out at the Lynx game have secrets they don't want people asking about.
