and the fact remains that most if not all the people on here bashing cops are incapable of doing the job themselves.

like i said, u can call it whatever u want.. the history of this nation has created this mindset, and yes there are exceptions, and people who get it, but trust me, 15% join the force to finally get to put down some of these guys, and another big percentage still does distinguish between black and white and acts on instinct, maybe even unconsciously. I see it.. every day. I wouldnt be saying it, if i didnt.
no more comments.. getting tired of the topic. wash, rinse, repeat.. it doesnt change tho

to paint all cops as racist is almost racist in itself.i know not all cops are good cops but this video would make you believe all are the same when most are good people.

sure, part is. its not like purely innocents sit in those prisons. but i wasnt pointing out what "they" did, i was merely pointing out that it cant be that people of darker skin color have a higher criminal rate. that doesnt make any sense and u know it.
to me, this just means there are a just a lot more white criminals not jailed coz the cops are too busy eying/shooting black people even though they havent done much, in many cases. call it racism, or US culture. its implemented in a cops brain

isnt at least part their fault?
t0pz87 (October 11, 2008 at 11:22 pm)
right, that is a fact... but u assume this is because of their own fault? i hope not.. coz that would mean you think black people are just somehow more criminal than white people... and that is bogus. Reputation is nothing more than another bias placed into a cop's brain, viewing them as more of a potential threat... IMHO

blacks to some degree have earned a certain reputation,just check to see who fills our prison system.

i would usually defend the police, because i know firsthand what a nerve-breaking job it is.. however i am surprised (not really) by the amount of african americans being shot by "mistake" in comparison to white guys being shot coz of a mistake.
Now, i dont go bashing cops for doing mistakes. Everyone does. However, being biased and racist towards an individual because of their (scary) look or "potential threatening appearance" is a mistake you can actually fix!
