And also because that's the problem?
OH MY GOD THE MEDIA DON'T SHOW PEOPLE BEING ARRESTED NORMALLY...IT HAPPENS!!!
I don't think anybody is saying every black person who comes in to contact with police is racially abused, but it IS a problem and it IS due to racism. It baffles me that anyone I talk to over here can see it, even my step dad who is crazily right wing can see the racism at work in american police forces (oh btw yeah us europeans talk about other countries that aren't our own, i realise this may be a foreign concept (geddit? also, this is like inception) to many americans), but there are so many people IN America that seem completely blind to the glaringly obvious :/
Why would the media have a report like 'And today, a policeman arrested a guy and nobody was killed unfairly'
That's not news lol that's what is supposed to happen.
