There's a bigger reason for that. The penal system took over where slavery left off. Here's an eye opener if you're interested. @13THFilm
White men continue to be the primary murderers of American police. They almost always get taken in alive too. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/gunman-kills-new-york-trooper-woman-upstate-home-article-1.3313980 …pic.twitter.com/WtISSlkO9I

In contrast, if a black man even breathes in a way an officer dislikes, they'll have an entire magazine emptied into them. Shameful.

Except if you're a religious nut called David Koresh, I suppose...
-
That wasn't police. ATF. Apples/oranges.
-
Still Law Enforcement.
-
It's an entirely different problem. ATF rarely would come into contact with any of the POC murdered by police.

Okay, okay, I was wrong, sorry. It's difficult to get the whole picture about US if one is on another continent.
-
Impressive you're so well informed :) More so than most Americans are. We need all the help we can get to sort out the mess in US. TY :)

I try my very best, good madam/sir.

Why does race matter?!.please answer I'm wanting to know
-
Ignoring the very real issue with race in this country allows it to fester and get worst and worst. It needs to be talked about.
-
Look I didn't need a small lecture. But I do agree. But really I don't understand why it does
-
You asked and I'm trying to explain it. It's not a lecture. If you don't know and want to know... I'm tying to tell you.
-
OK I understand. I wasn't trying to be mean. But no matter how many people try to tell me it doesn't sink in
-
This is why dialogue is important! Talking about it is fundamental. Asking questions etc.
