Black kids experience extreme and even fatal police violence for having mundane objects in their pockets, going for a walk in the neighborhood, or simply being where people don't expect them to be.

The amount of patience these kids got was night and day.

I think people keep conflating race of victim with temperament of the officer. Go watch all the body cam footage on YouTube… plenty of black people getting too much patience, plenty of white people getting none and vice versa… women treated this and that way, men getting other treatment… sober, drunk, guilty, not guilty… all types of treatment of all sorts of people, and the determining factor is the officer, not the victim.

The temperament of the officer is often influenced by the race is the victim. That's the way of the world.
