The latest "criminal" behavior for a Black person that required calling the police was using a manufacture's coupon at a chain store. How much was the coupon for?

In the last few months the police have been called for:
A Black firefighter doing an annual check on fire hazards in a neighborhood.
A Black state representative going door to door to see what her constituents wanted her to do for them.
A Black 8 year old boy on his first day delivering newspapers finding out he delivered some to the wrong houses and fixing his mistake.
It reminds me of an "All in the Family" episode where the Black plumber assistant accidentally gets some apple bits on Archie's shirt and as he's wiping them off, Archie said, "Don't you know you're not suppose to touch them when a White person is still in them." You can't do the right thing if you're Black.

In the past few months you have successfully identified 4 occasions on which a black person was treated unfairly? Get a grip, mate. There will have been literally thousands of similar events from people of all races. Your examples are statistically meaningless.

The examples are statistically significant because it cases where White people do significantly extreme criminal acts they are treated much differently. There are more of these events occurring in the last year where skin color is the major difference in treatment.
For example two heavily armed White men wearing bullet resistant vests walk into a Midwest police station and are talked down instead of shot on sight. Meanwhile Mesa, Arizona police are facing 3 investigations into excessive force in 3 different incidents in less than 2 weeks involving unarmed people of color.

Kinda hard to get away from the numbers. Profiling should not have to happen, but in this new world, it’s hard to imagine its going anywhere.
