        Why do white people who actually shoot people get taken into custody instead of being shot by the police themselves?

        But that guy actually had a gun... typically when black men have been shot in recent events they haven’t had been carrying guns. Unless they’re deathly afraid of pipes....

        Her son's been racially profiled lots, stopped without cause etc. I always think he's just too smart to be affected, but that's not true, and I know that. So...worry!

        If you get a chance, read/listen to the book, "The Hate U Give." It's really good. And there is no such thing as too smart. How can it not affect you? And even if everything is done right, it may not matter at all.

        Thx for the rec! Her son is SO smart and kind! Lives in Oakland now. And yes, none of that seems to matter at all!
