Over at Rawstory, they’ve got an article detailing eight times the police have faced off with armed suspects and the suspects lived to … fight another day. Eight times. So you know that means they’re white, right?
We’re talking pointing guns, firing BB guns, and actually shooting guns—sometimes while wearing body armor—at cops and these suspects actually make it out of the encounter alive. Imagine that.
Here’s a video of one of those good folks in the act of retrieving and pointing his gun at the cops down in San Diego, California. The police shoot him, he falls, then—get this—“for more than a half hour police try to convince him to move away from the gun.”
Now that’s white privilege.
