I don't think it's a race issue.
But I do think it has to do with power.
As awful and horrific as this is, you have to imagine the conditions in which the police are going through right now. These 'protests' are violent and scary. They must be fearing for their lives.
Yes, a lot of black people are shot and killed by members of the police... but you've got to remember how many members of the police are killed doing their job.
Is this an act of racism? IMO, no. If this was an act of racism, far far many more black people would be shot and killed on a daily basis. Is this an act of police brutality? Yes, I personally believe so
I believe there is always two sides to a story.

Racial profiling... Trayvon Martin is another good example.
Just look at what police did do a 14 year old. Not sure i've ever seen a 14 yr old white kid beaten to this extent, no matter what the crime. If there was a crime. The pigs photo is beside him because people are comparing his supposed injuries with real injuries
