If a Black woman was shot in the Capitol or a white person was shot escaping arrest, does your opinion change?

I’m not asking if the police would behave differently.

I just saw on TV that the officer who fatality shot the woman at the attack on the Capitol on Jan 6 was found to have done nothing wrong. Do you agree? If so, what if the woman who was killed had been Black? Would your view still be the same? I ask the same if you think the officers actions were wrong and criminal. What if the person they shot was Black?

How about the recent Daunte situation? If it was a white guy trying to escape arrest (there was a warrant out for his arrest for his failure to appear in court on charges that he fled from officers and possessed a gun without a permit during an encounter with Minneapolis police in June) do you look at the situation differently? Does it matter if he looks like a skinhead or looks like a white preppy boarding school student?

I understand Black people are being targeted more by police and there is racism in the ranks, please don’t lecture on that. I’m just asking about YOUR objectivity. Does the situation look different to you regarding race, social class, or some external factor?

Can YOU change the race or ethnicity every time you see cases like this and have the same opinion? Do you try it? Put someone like you in the same position.
