I’m open to any perspective that a black or other minority poster may want to offer. I’m just not prepared to let them dictate the tenor of the argument by insinuating that my opinions are racist like it would in the main stream media.

Maybe they don’t like to play on an even playing field and so have absconded.
Are you a little on the spectrum?

I have never seen the type of racism that Sheik is talking about ever in real day to day life. Now, in videos and from other accounts I have seen racism of every skin color. Hopefully, that's more clear.
Neither have I and I grew up in East Texas in a town with under 5k people that Im sure people to this day would claim is full of redneck racists

I’m not going to sugarcoat it, before my bro in law told me his experiences, it had never bothered me like it continues to a week or so later.

I was legit shaken by it and continue to be so.

I have gotten to see how the police treat my black and brown colleagues over the last 10 years ago and it's been pretty shocking. One of my NP's husband was arrested because his name was the same as an escaped fugitive (he has a VERY common hispanic name). They actually sent him to prison for a month until his wife spent $30,000 to hire a lawyer to get him released. How the fuck does that even happen? You think there is a chance in hell that would have happened to me? The guy is an MRI tech so it's not like he's a thug - or even looks like one.

Another one of my NP's son is black and he got pulled over for not signaling in traffic, they search his car without cause, find an empty container of CBD (which he doesn't even use - it was a friends) and arrest him for possession. They never drug tested the kid. CBD is widely sold in Dallas, but he was pulled over in Rowlett, a DFW suburb. So the governor had a bill to legalize CBD in Texas on his desk and it was signed before the kid went to court. The court did not dismiss. Instead they fined him $5,000 and put him on deferred adjudication. You think they would have thought they could have got away with that shit with my kid? Would they have even pulled over my kid?

We all went out drinking one night and we all drove home afterwards (I was fine). Guess who gets pulled over by cops? The black gal who is a PA. They arrest her for suspicion of DUI. She smartly refuses the breathalizer so they get a warrant and take her to an ED for a blood raw. They kept the case open for 3-4 years. Finally, her lawyer found out her BAC was less than 80. They could have dismissed that shit any time they wanted.

So it's been eyeopening. The white privilege thing is real although I think it's more along the lines that everybody should be treated the way we are rather than being white being some sort fo fucking nirvana.

You've got a lot of white guilt built up in you. I prescribe 5 BLM foot washings to absolve your sins

YouTube is replete with examples of cops being dicks to white people. So yes, it could happen to you.

There is zero chance they would think they could pull that shit on someone like me. First off they would likely believe me when I said it wasn't me. If not, I would have a lawyer get me out immediately. lf not, I would sue the shit out of their office and I would win.

I will say how you approach the police often dictates how things go in your interactions with them. In this case, however, I'm sure I would be pissed as hell.

It stills seems so crazy to me. Did they not look at his Driver's license? Not check his prints? Not compare pictures? How could such an enormously stupid mistake be made? What's worse is the lawyer wouldn't sue to State because he said they wouldn't win. So they are out $30,000, the guy was in prison for a month (holy shit) and he's a little fucked up about the whole thing.

Is this the white privilege attitude I have heard about?

That's true for anyone who has the money. That's economic privilege, not white privilege. Christ, OJ was accused of a double homicide and still got out on bail.
That's true. That's certainly part of it. But it's not all of it.
