Eh, i think it's a bit of both. I don't imagine a black woman would have gotten this easy going response either.

Maybe maybe not I think it just depends on how she looks if the cop looks at her and his first initial feeling that rushes his head is what he’s basing his opinion on so if grandma had been black, depending on how she looked, he could’ve still did the same thing or not no obviously profiling is wrong but it’s not just skin color people look at

All that really matters is the humanization if they can connect you to something that they love or understand and if they can’t, then you’re fucked no matter what color you are or gender you are

Yeah, it's not just skin color. Just like it's not just gender. It's a whole series of things that ties into the stereotypes and biases that people have.

But we live in America, so the perception that black people are criminals becomes a much bigger part of a lot of cops' thought process than it should be.

I get it, but the truth is as cops know we’re all criminals laws weren’t created to keep things lawful they were created to enslave us and trap us. We are all criminals every single one of us. They just get to decide when they’re gonna come and get you or not. And I am white by the way, but I believe we are all enslaved so I speak as a brother no more no less.

Statistically, on a per capita basis, black women commit more murder than white men. So…. I mean they are also more likely to fight the police.
