And your evidence is???? Sorry, but someone using racism out of context is the same as using sexism as an excuse for being fired for incompetence. That dog don't hunt.

Still, no evidence that this was anything more than excessive force by an over zealous COP. Considering the fact that out of four COPS on the scene, only two were white makes it interesting, no?

The 100+ year old quote means what exactly? That there is no such thing as racism in the 21st century? Booker T. Washington had many great, optimistic quotes attributed to him. He may well have had other thoughts had he lived through most of the Jim Crow days.
