Racial Profiling (Part 4)

Only Stupid or Something More?
The abuse of power, racial profiling, and all is
STUPID AND “ACTING STUPIDLY!”
The African American NFL player in Texas on March 27, 2009 detained in the hospital emergency parking lot for a traffic ticket by a white cop while trying unsuccessfully to get to his mother’s dying bedside with her condition personally verified by hospital staff present in the parking lot.
The African American ambulance driver on May 28, 2009 in Oklahoma pulled over off the highway by a white cop and physically by chokehold detained for a traffic ticket while his emergency patient was screaming for help inside the ambulance.
Dr. Henry Louis Gates, an African American professor, arrested and handcuffed in his own home by a white cop on July 20, 2009 for “screaming” when there was no case for burglary.
Troy Anthony Davis accused of killing a white cop, executed on September 21, 2011 in Georgia when the preponderance of current evidence demonstrated him to be an innocent man and the previous eye-witness evidence that supported his guilt was recanted by 7 of the 9 witnesses all citing police intimidation as the reason for their initial false testimony.
Why are all of these instances of extreme police abuse of power always between white cops and Black men?
Are they isolated incidents or a dangerous “trend,” historical in nature, throughout and across America?
What if they aren’t acting stupidly or doing stupid acts?
I paid attention and I learned.
I’m scared and I’m scared for my family, Still and Again!!!!!!!!
