I never said black cops are given a pass at anything, just that the way they make out these things you'd think it was all white people.I'm also not sure what to make of the fact your quote seems to suggest black police only behave this way to impress white cops.
Well, when you figure it out, don't let me know.
But yes, things are made out that way. Especially on this board. When I said there was a problem with police brutality, people told me no there is a problem with racism.
I'd honestly be curious about the number of black officers who have killed blacks vs the number of white officers who have.
The silver lining is at least we have no riots and no fools saying silly shit like "give looters their space" this time around..at least not yet.

Police brutality and racism are not exclusive of each other, or at least don't have to be.eg the Rodney King case. King was brutalized and several of the officers in question were known to be racist.
I never said they were exclusive, but look at the title of the article. Why do you think the fact this person is black was specified? Just the phrasing makes it sound like a racially motivated thing. Yet one of those involved is black.
Just some more news about the trial:
Apparently they are trying to get a cop to testify against another cop and the cop of course doesn't want to.
So the first cop essentially was cleared due to a hung jury. Now a second cop has been cleared:
He sold drugs to kids.
Here is he arrest record.
