    Black cops are learning the hard lesson that they will go to prison if the mimic the brutality of their white peers. Ask my friends at the Ethical Society of Police (@ESOP_STL) or retired cop @cpegues about this. They've tried to warn men like this.https://twitter.com/ShaunKing/status/993844138218008576 …

    Atlanta Officer Trevor King mercilessly beat this Black man with a baton @WalMart - breaking his legs in multiple places. He was accused of stealing a tomato. The receipt was in the bag. Officer just sentenced to 5 years in prison.

        Soon we will see Mohamed Noor convicted for murdering Justine Damond. A Black, Muslim cop won't get away with killing a White woman. We've seen dozens of videos of Black people killed by cops w/o any charges but watch him get convicted w/o the need for video.

        Serious question, what exactly is the "race card"? Cops kill unarmed Black people with little to no consequences pretty often. There is data proving that there is racial bias in the court system & cops are regularly not punished for killing Black people. So?

        The "race card" is a new alt-right term used when they are challenged about racism. There is no race card, thats some BS to get confrontation started. They also like to state Al Sharpton is our leader, which is ludicrous as well.

        The flaw in your statement is that white cops seem to rarely be charged, much less sentenced.

        Black cops fall for the unrealistic belief that they have a brotherhood with their white counterparts and that the union will protect them. The same is true for black people in the military.

        They probably have a brotherhood in the field but the higher ups are corrupt. Similar to our government. It’s horrible and needs to change

        White skin is the difference between 5 years in prison and 2 week suspension with pay.

        As kids we are taught to respect and ask for help from cops. As we grow we learn to be afraid of cops. If we fight back or resist becuase of injustice we r killed by cops. Cops r in fear of their lives. They return to work and we lay six feet under. Yet they protect and serve.

        This is not true for just police. It's a known fact that Black Men cannot mimic any offenses of their white peers without extremely different consequences.

        Black or White Police Officers should do their job & serve the community in which they work! They should not be Judge, Jury & Executioner... #StillWaitingOnTheGoodOnes!
