I guess that you are not including white collar crime huh? Sub-prime mortages, bank fraud, they are majority crimes committed by whites on blacks and have a more damaging effect on blacks and the economy in general but for some reason it is rarely mentioned. Now why is that?

Rarely mentioned and almost never prosecuted. They'll impose Stop and Frisk which is a direct violation of our Constitutional Rights but they won't investigate and prosecute Bank and Wall St. fraud

If you go through the community thinking that you are invincible and that your brand of the law supercedes the actual law, of course your job is going to be dangerous Lets put it this way, if all of the policemen were gay males who detest women in general, how do you think that they would treat you every time that they seen you especially knowing that you had priors? It is not "race bull" it is how some people with NO criminal record has to deal with overzealous police officers.
What would be interesting is if "Black" cops in mostly Black cities "profile" Black people as law breakers as much as anglo white cops. Word is "Hispanic" cops are MORE likely to come down on Hispanic dudes than us, a Chicano told me to be glad I was "white" since a Hispanic cop would treat me with more respect.

Understand this as it was told to me by a relative on the police force, blacks and latino officers still have to prove themselves to their fellow white officers as where their loyality belongs. There are of course those who have self hate issues before they become cops and use their position of authority to strike out at those who look like them as well.

Uh; it might NOT be "self hate" but more those Black and "Hispanic" cops hold punks of their "own kind" in contempt. Word is 1 of the biggest racists out there against Black hood rats is a Black dude who takes care of business because those hood rats make him look real bad.

I understand that would apply if they were caught in the act and had previous runs ins with that particuliar person, but that would not apply to them treating every minority with equal contempt rather did they did anything or not.

That is the most ignorant crap that I seen in awhile! So just because someone is getting help from the government does not mean that a cop can come and violated their 4th Amendment rights. Does this apply to those wealthy SOBs who are feeding off of the government's tete in the form of subsidies?
