If every cop in your town was black and your town was majority white, you would be asking a ton of questions and demanding answers If they're shooting all the criminal white trash in the area and bringing down the crime rates - that would be awesome. We have a lot of (white) meth heads in the area. If they shot an 18 year old white kid after robbing a store, ruffing up the clerk and then assaulting an officer - I'd say it was a per-emptive end to the young mans life of crime saving untold future victims from harm.

>> If every cop in your town was black and your town was majority white, you would be asking a ton of questions and demanding answers......until there were more white cops on the beat. That's a ridiculous remark. I've been pulled over by plenty of black cops and never once have I questioned their authority or whether they doing their job any differently from the large number of white cops who've pulled me over. Your view is, as usual, inherently racist. Is there some reason you think the race of a police officer makes one shred of difference? White cops, black cops, it doesn't matter. If they tell you to get out of the street you get the hell out of the street and ask questions later.
