If equal justice were really a thing: A black guy accused of shooting a white cop would ask his own friends if he should be punished. (Man 1: What do you say, "internal affairs"?) (Man 2: Looks justified!) Black friends of his friends would decide if he should be indicted. Jurors would believe the black guy's story-not the white cop. (Two Women: Blah blah blah). When white cope protest, black guys would police their marches, which other black guys on TV would marginalize. (Man: Thank God the heroic black guys are there to protect the #whitecopsmatter marchers. Just stay peaceful white cops!)
If there are ten policemen, and one of them beat and killed an unarmed teenager and the other nine knew and did nothing, how many bad cops are there?
