From a local teen: I was sitting in my front yard as the policemen drove up and they walked up and flash their light on my front door to see what was on the door. They asked me questions and they asked me a neighbor and they asked did he reside next door and I said yes. While they were leaving I heard them make a call on the radio dispatcher that someone was selling drugs just because it was a lot of big teens hanging around a cook out a few house down from mine. It is racist and you need to change your views. Because your views will affect how you treat other people rather you realize that or not. Like how black men are least likely to be hired for jobs, or how they are falsely accused of crimes every day, or how they are treat by policemen are just downright wrong, my dad has never been to jail and he was pulled over by the cops and they made him get out the car and they put hand cuffs on him and check his record and they messed up his arm doing that cuz they were too rough on my dad for doing nothing wrong, or how some people will go out of their way to avoid a black men walking down the street. This is what happens when you or anyone else decides to hold these views about people when we are individuals. Blacks causing the most crimes are not true it’s just that blacks get racially profiled more than any other race and that's why, it’s all a result of racism. I've seen a video of the jail in California I forgot where it was but they had just as many other races as blacks well except for Asians but there were alot of whites, Hispanics along with black people. So if you had watched a video that showed all white people like that would you think that about your own race? Probably not. We are not animals, we are not savage and you should be angry with yourself because it is wrong. And no I don't have racist tendencies. I've been through too much racism myself to ever think that way about someone else.
