@boothy443 Hiding behind a cultural purity of service, duty, working-class heroics, and Mark Wahlberg movies. @boothy443 What I mean by that is, police officers occupy a place in the American psyche that gives so many a nearly instant pass because “it’s a hard job.”

And you know what - it is! I totally buy that it Is a hard job

I think t is because white people dont want to believe that white supremacy is an actual problem. They don’t get the systemic problem. They hear “white supremacy,” and think of crosses and hoods, and think that stuff is dead and gone. But they don’t get that stuff is not a disease but rather a symptom.
