This is a normal post Because the whole outcry over those viral videos is dishonest utter bullshit.
The US police shoot dead 13 unarmed black men in 2019. This is a ridiculously low number for a population of 330 million. They made around 10 million arrests in 2019.

Also the recent cases aren't innocent black men walking down the street getting harrassed by the police for the color their skin. They are mostly shitheads with a rapsheet, often under the influence, making trouble and getting the cops called onto them and then things get out of hand.

This is a normal post Oh I see so there isn't a problem of systemic racism in the US.
I'm glad that's sorted out.

This is a normal post No there isn't.
What law discriminates based on race in your opinion?

This is a normal post Why do you ask? We literally just established that there's no systemic racism in the US
and of course systemic racism means explicit laws codified to do harm to black people.

Oh nevermind, I just thought you might want to elaborate on that conspiracy theory of yours a little bit more.

This is a normal post No I'm not. What gave you that impression?
As far as I'm accustomed with the US justice system it seems to be one of the better ones. Better than most alternatives at least. Before you start crying about mass incarceration, here is a splendid idea: Stop breaking the fucking law!

This is a normal post Best of all the principles! Works out quite well as far as i know.
This is also why you comply when the police tries to apprehend you, so can have your day in court.

Certainly don't behave like the guy with the domestic abuse record and sexual assault charges in the current video.

This is a normal post eax, you fall into the trap of believing that these protest are just about the floyd of some other isolated event
These are simply particularly egregious examples caught on film of a very common experience for african americans, but an uncommon one for white americans. If you listen to the testimony of protesters, it's a repeated refrain, and something you don't get from 5 second news clips of people marching. They've been unfairly victimised by police multiple times, along with most people they know. Not Floyd. Not this wife beater. Them. And they're hugely and justifiably pissed off and don't want to put up with it anymore, particularly because they feel that they now live in a land where the president sympathises with white supremacists. Floyd was just the straw that broke the camels back.
Perhaps with Niel de Grasse Tyson, a physicist not noted for hyperbole or politics, might you understand what's behind the protest: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJqn124pmHY

This is a normal post It’s not the law so much as its application. If you overwhelmingly stop and search one type of person, you are using the law selectively. When that ‘type’ is an ethnic group, it is reasonable and accurate to describe this as institutional racism.

This is a normal post I suspect they are used as specific instances, like the 'Karen' videos.
After all, it is difficult to prove other sorts of systemic racism on video.
Another example might be elder abuse or abuse of disabled people; when cameras became smaller and cheaper, videos of abuse hit the headlines. That doesn't mean the majority of carers hurt clients.

But then again, it is not innocent people getting misthreated because they are black. It is asshole criminals ending up dead because they are asshole criminals.

This is a normal post Threshold of summary execution seems to be lower for some than others.
I'll believe you when people who are wealthy, white, female or politically connected get the same treatment.

Why would a police officer threat them the same? The chance to lose his life is substantially higher when a young man is resisting arrest than when he is dealing with some Karen.

I highly doubt that wealthy white women commit homicides at the same rate that poor young black, white and yellow men do. Not even close I guess.

Is that "systemic racism" thing just what young people call common sense nowadays? Why should they threat them the same, when different demographics are at completely different crime and threat levels?

Don't you think the guy could just have raised his arms and said "lawyer"? You honestly think he would still ended up being shoot? Should we go burn some car dealership and loot some shops tonight to make it all better?

This is a normal post How many black men commit mass murder
School or church shooting and the like?
Yeah, I don't feel safe around white folk in the US.
I never know when they are going to wave their 9mm penis extension in my face.
Probably because I started using words longer than 5 letters,
And they took offence.
