2622113, Damn this hit home because it happens all the time

It happens to people you work with.

It happens to people you don't work with.

It will happen tonight and the black person will go to jail over it somewhere in the country.

Reactions around the web and social media are disgusting because they lack humanity. I tire of "having to prove these actions are racist". It is absolutely demoralizing to see cops treat Michael this way because he's big and black. When white people commit crimes cops don't attack the nearest white person and say fuck their civil rights during the situation.

Yes, I've gone through similar situations and it's unreal. You can get killed and the cop will get away while your friends and coworkers condone the cops' actions as justified.
