      Even black cops.

      Not that this story doesn’t highlight major societal issues with bias and bigotry. But yeah. ACAB still holds true.

    To be fair, cops can’t just randomly look into people’s houses, so this guy could have been mistaken for a police impersonator.

        Cops can randomly look into people’s houses. For example, if the blinds are up etc.

        Because anyone can. It’s not illegal.

    This country has horrific systemic racism, and that might very will have instigated this scenario.

    On the other hand, if there’s a guy prowling between the houses of my neighborhood, even if he’s in uniform, I’m going to call the police to make sure it’s legit, and I’m going to describe him as best I can, including skin color.

      Absolutely, it’s absurd for that guy to assume this is a racist act.

      But that’s what happens when victim mentality is drilled into one so deeply that it becomes the primary component of one’s identity.

        A wound that is stricken on a daily basis becomes so sore even a gentle touch hurts.

          Living as a hammer that sees everything as a nail is not a virtue, it’s a flaw.
