You ever wonder why there are no videos of cops tackling and punching white supremacists during their protests?

(It’s cause the cops are on their side.)

It’s about sides, but not about racism, I think.

Just the profession is mostly attractive to cowards who want to fill the inner void of self-respect by violence against others (or fear). Quite similar to how people become racist.

It’s definitely about racism. Racists are welcomed in the force. They’re just encouraged to keep it on the DL. You know, only wear the hood on the weekends.
Racism is just one of great many things often uniting cowards.
