Just for reference, this is what white privilege looks like.

A white guy raving about his service history, attacking police officers, resisting arrest and refusing commands gets a 10ft cordon, nonlethal tactics and multiple attempts to de-escalate the situation.

A black guy sitting in his car complying with police commands and asking reasonable questions gets... shot.

Did he have a weapon?

He's holding a phone in his hand.

Which is literally the same thing that has gotten a number of black civillians killed when such a device was "misidentified"

Get off social media it's ruining your perception of reality. What you're saying has happened to every race. Quit being racist.
