We do not get to scream and yell loudly when someone disagrees with us, call them names and remove their voice from society. I don’t think it’s smart to base our ideology on things that aren’t true. Police are not killing black people disproportionately. Police have shot innocent people of all colours. Police do need better training. They shouldn’t have some of the immunity that they do. We shouldn’t have no knock warrants regularly occurring. I am not an unreasonable person that supports police 100% of the time. I just see people making statements that aren’t founding in factual stats and I added my opinion. If I’m wrong tell me why and I’ll thank you.

Calling someone “bud” is quite dismissive.
Suggesting black people being arrested is because they’re generally violent is wrong and racist.
Suggesting if they just didn’t resist it would all be ok is simply wrong and also racist.
Black people are pre-judged as being deserving of being pulled over, arrested, OR SHOT WHILE BEING ARRESTED, simply due to the colour of their skin. That is racist and wrong.
Black people are being killed by police disproportionately.
