How do you even explain people who are killed, while unarmed, while pinned to the ground. 2 blacks weren't killed by a gunshot buy by shear police brutality and even cutting off people's air supplies. If the best we have is "we're scared" the police force should be ashamed of themselves. I lived in white neighborhoods my entire life. I went to white schools my entire life, there were classes where I'd be the only black kid but I didn't mind. I wasn't scared, I just saw them as people.
Of course, bring crime into the equation and yes I'd be uneasy. But you never see black cops killing unarmed white civillians. I am under the notion that a considerable portion of the police force in the US were born in families that were associated or shared beliefs with white supremecists. And when they act outside the line of judgement, they feel that because they are in the force, that covers them from judgement. And so far, it has worked. And then more and more and more cases came in. These recent killings aren't new. It's just that we can share and capture information much easier than we could 16 years ago.
We can't blame the situation on shooting innocent people. Your job first and foremost is to protect the people. Not shoot somebody when you ask them for their license, or choke somebody to death who has asthma, or shoot a kid in a hoodie walking funny. This is insane. If an unarmed white kid was shot by a black officer do you know how fast he'd be thrown in jail. Almost immediately. I hate to sound this way but after being in a news internship at a local news station I see how people think. It's sick.
You signed up to protect people. If you're "nervous", you have no right to be in the police force. And unless you know they have a gun you have no right to shoot, you have the right to have a taser, not shoot somebody to death.

Just like how everybody isn't racist. Sure, everybody isn't but there's still a great amount of people who are. What happened is wrong, black officer or white officer.
