@sun My understanding is that most police interactions these days are barely affected by race. It's usually a matter of whether the person was armed, whether they were acting in a directly threatening way, and so on. There are some high-profile cases where race seems to play a part, and it goes both ways. That is, as much as there are cases where unjust negative assumptions are made about a suspect due to their race, there are now also cases where police are scared of being accused of racism and go especially light on racial minorities, like in the UK child abuse gangs situation. This actually fosters more hate when people start to notice it so it's doubly wrong.
