      Were you asleep for the last decade? We’ve seen over and over how people of color get treated by cops.

      PD as a broader category are racist because they will spend hours and risk gory death to avoid killing a mass shooter or a maniac with a hatchet but will shoot a black child on sight. My local PD’s efforts to save the lunatic are actually commendable and just. I’m using that as an obvious contrast to behavior in situations like this one. Their commendable behavior proves that its entirely possible and reasonable to preserve life even in harrowing situations. The tragedy is that other cops as a group don’t show the same bravery when a black child’s life is in the balance.
