It doesn't matter if he was racist or not. It's unreasonable position to believe all cops or racist or that all police brutality towards blacks comes from racist ideology. This is typical race baiting nonsense that professors peddle to keep their jobs and a media that needs ratings. The data just doesn't support this claim. Using 2015 as an example (since it's the first data I found), there was 53.3 MILLION encounters with the police by US citizens. 20% of those were black, which makes it 10.66 million encounters blacks had with cops. That same year, 104 black people were killed by cops. Your likelihood of being killed by a police officer as an unarmed black man is 0.00000975609756097561. If you think this number is indicative of anything resembling a crisis, you are deluding yourself.

Yes. There is room for improvement with our Police. Yes. There will be bad actors. Yes. You may even find a racist cop. Yes. Blacks face discrimination in various forms in the US. None of that indicates the system is corrupt.

There are flawed people. Like almost all of America's leftist policies, they exploit the flaws of humanity to advance an ideology that won't actually solve the flaws in humanity.
