This year I turned 49 years old. Looking back at my life it occurs to me that I get around. I've lived in nearly every major East Coast city and quite a few burbs and exurbs that connects them. Spent a year homeless in LA as a child. Briefly existed in FLA and North Chicago. The Navy moved me around a bit. VA Beach, Norfolk mostly. Spent 3 years contracting for the Coast Guard in NC. Nearly 5 years in the frozen wastes of Northern NY state where people spoke like Canucs eh, you hoser.
I've also been fortunate enough to visit half a dozen foreign countries. Even got to live and work in Brazil.
I've seen alot. And I'm a very perceptive person. I study my surroundings and the people in them.
And in all my observations during my 49 years of traveling guess what I've never seen anywhere?

Racism. Outright, belligerent, obvious racism towards Black people. Nowhere to be seen.
Same with slavery.
And I've lived with Black people too. Literally lived with one I was married to for 7 years. During that experience I perceived quite frequent racist slurs towards myself and her from black people. And that continues even now for my son who's mixed. 99 % of the racism he experiences daily is from blacks.

But back to the topic at hand. In 49 years and living all over as I have I've never seen a lynching. I've never seen police brutality towards Black people. Have seen that inflicted on Whites though. I've never seen anything resembling open hostility towards blacks. I have heard people talking badly about them. The Puerto Ricans who were my neighbors in Philly had nothing nice to say about them though.

But still I just haven't seen with my two eyes all the victimization they're constantly crying about.
Not in 49 years.
Have you seen it?

Open your eyes and look around right now.
What do you see?

 When I lived in LA I saw plenty of double standard from law enforcement towards black Americans.  No lynching's, but I did see people pulled out of car windows, kicked, back then a few still carried PR24's but mostly it was extendable baton.

 Of course every situation is different, but I would say the most common was getting hit while in cuffs, on the ground.  I saw a lot of that, but I would say it was mostly reaction to verbal issues versus physical.  I think law enforcement had less tolerance for language from black Americans.

This guy speaks people should listen.

"In my observations from both sides of the law (I wasn't always such a good apple) I have noted a particular pattern in police behavior. Generally if you express murderous intent to cops (of any ethnicity) you don't get treated with any sort of professional conduct. It's almost as if they don't like death threats. The gloves tend to come off even when the perp is white. "


 I'd agree.  

 Unfortunately law enforcement can't physically act on death threats if harm is not imminent.  For instance if I am handcuffed face down on the ground and tell them I will "kill them" and they shoot me in the back because I threatened their lives, they are in the wrong.  Same if they just kick me a few times in the ribs.

 My experience wasn't a lot of black Americans threatening to kill anyone, but more of a repeatedly saying the same thing over and over.  Like "Why you arresting me?" but like a perpetual broken record.  That got a few punches, even once saw an officer press his fingers into a guy's trachea, while cuffed, to get him to stop hollering.

 Seemed like even the Mexican Americans got more leniency but maybe it was because I ran mostly in Norteño gang-territory.

 I've seen a lot of abuse videos over the years, and have literally seen program directors have to search for some non-minority incidents to equal out the presentation, but that was for more of a PC presentation.

 Either way I've seen what appears to me to be more physical assault while in handcuffs on black Americans than others, but at the time I wasn't exactly keeping track.    

"Pretty messed up thing to lose your spouse for."

 Yeah too bad the cops had bogus stings going on.  Poor guy, didn't deserve to get caught cheating on his wife.

"Just with busses alone the average was 350-400 violent incident calls per month."

 I haven't worked directly with the NTSB, but I have seen a lot of those videos.  So many people are surprised when they hear the real numbers.
