No one walks into a black neighborhood feeling safe, even if they’ve never been robbed or shot. Society has told you blacks are criminals since you were born.
so, take a person, who has never been in a black neighborhood. And throw them there, they feel defensive and scared. So, why would a cop feel any less fearful or aggressive against blacks.
also, did he say, if you don’t want to get killed by a cop, don’t commit a crime? So, Eric Gardner deserves to get choked out in the middle of the street for selling cigs. Someone deserves to get shot in the back for running? Clearly the punishment doesn’t fit the crime so it’s pretty absurd to defend killing criminals unless your life was threatened.
