At this point, I've lost what you are talking about @NYPDDetectiveODonnell equality is already out there, Black Power is a thing of the past, as the whole idea was to provide equal rights to blacks, and that has been done. Thus' bringing the confusion with why a supposed new black army that is forming, that will be stronger than ever, because this is just sounding like a plot to a Lord of the Rings movie.

Equality exists, is it at the level we want it to be? No, however it's not simply down to White Cops. I mean, people say that Cops judge Black people based on the actions of a minority, all while judging all white cops for the actions of a minority. It's truly confusing, why is it only the White Police who are racist, it's everyone involved.

And what did your  J Edgar Hoover and the F.B.I do? raid the community with drugs, murder 110 members, created false accusations against leaders using the media, Robbery, murder, and manipulation.

My J. Edgar Hoover? So, since we're both white, we can be related? Maybe I should say something like, oh, know what your Chris Dorner did? No, don't pull this "we" crap. Now you're just throwing names of white people who have done criminal acts to make people of Caucasian decent look bad. Oh, know what MY Hitler did? "We" have no direct association with any of these people. Those are individuals who just happen to be of the "same" ethnicity. Which I mean, we're all white. British, German, Swedish, it's all the same. What you're saying is exactly what people who "fight" the police. Oh, that cop shot a dog! All cops are disgusting pigs!

Just stop.

I think one of the reasons some cops are on edge when dealing with a black person, is because a small amount of very vocal people who seem to get all the attention they want from the media do horrible things to the public and police officers. And when it comes to a point where an officer is trying to decide whether this person is going to kill him/her or is simply a perfectly civil, law abiding citizen, of course they are going to make some wrong decisions. And me personally, well i'd rather go home to my family rather than being shot because I didn't want to be the target of all of the hate in the world.

And I don't think racism is the major problem. Sure, there are some racist cops out there. But if the radical side of the BLM protesters realized that they were the problem, we would have so much less of these issues.

For those of you who want to fix the real injustices in our system, may I suggest this book: https://www.amazon.com/New-Jim-Crow-Incarceration-Colorblindness/dp/1595586431/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1468380484&sr=1-1&keywords=The+new+Jim+crow

One well researched book by author Michelle Alexander, unlike the media who exaggerates everything, this author points out the real problems in our justice system and how we can fix them. Also NYPDdetective, none of what you're saying is true.

If we're equal then how is it that 27 percent of my people are in poverty and 9.3 percent of yours? I'll wait.

Does poverty really need to be race issue? Poverty can be caused by a number of things: addiction (be it drugs or alcohol) natural disasters, poor life choices, or maybe someone was born into a poor family, not just the color of one's skin. At the end of the day, like Ben and Lundy said, equality exists, just not  at the level we want it.

No Poverty is the state of having little to no resources needed to survive. But Ben's whole equality analogy is sure of a racist way to put it. Fact is no matter where your people are in the world your race is at the top and other's are at the bottom. How is it that your people were not natives anywhere in the world but yet have the best of everything? I mean how is it that African's in Africa are poor but white's in Africa are  rich? Your race has stolen everything. Your ancestors murdered mine for the  prosperity of it's own people Thus why today you can play as if there's some sort of conspiracy against red people. Please....

You know there's black rich people in Africa too, just saying. 

And that's quite enough.
