What, do you think this is some kind game? We play race cards? Of course in this fantasy world, there is abolutely no racism, never.
You're the one who brought race into it. No one else.
If all you wanted was a soapbox upon which to air the chip on your shoulder and complain about racist police, why didn't you just be clear when you started the thread?0 -
Yes racism exists - that doesn't mean that every time a police officer stops you, it's because of your race0

Of course racism exists.
But going looking for it in places where it (generally) isn't does nobody any favours - least of all those who suffer it for real. All it does is pee people off and add to the "is it cos I is black?" stereotype, which is a gift to the real racists out there.0
