I get where you are coming from but it's not fair to try and replace white with black, and to try is honestly not a great thing to do. It's ignoring the centuries of anti black oppression and the centuries of white supremacy that underlies western society. Especially when cops have been instrumental in that oppression.
So the exact same thing isn't racism when it's directed at a race that has a higher score at being in the receiving end? Gotcha. That's racist as fuck.
