People of color are so mistreated in this country, if you think not then you have blinders on your eyes and plugs in your ears. I know very well a black Federal Judge, he is frequently stopped for no reason other than BBWD - being black while driving. He produces his Federal identification and all of a sudden the attitude changes, "Oh, sorry sir, we heard of crime involving a similar car . . . ", etc. He is fortunate because of his position, but I can only imagine what it would be without it, too many aggressive, power hungry, hate-filled people in this world.

Question for you. How many unarmed people have been killed by police officers in past few years? Seems like very few considering how many people live in the US.
Seems like it has been a few years since we had the last Black man killed by a policeman and in Ferguson he was up to no good with a rap sheet a mile long.
People should be free to protest but not loot and destroy other peoples property and get off scott free.
