Let’s see: Just walk into any courtroom in Chicago on any given day, and there will be more white cops than black ones; more white attorneys than black ones, more white judges than black ones, more whites on juries than blacks, etc. I’m not saying there aren’t blacks who commit crimes – what I am saying is that there are some who are taken in just for being black, and their fate is decided for them by this predominantly white group. I don’t know how many times I have been pulled over by the police for driving along minding my own business – and when they see the FOP decal my dad (the retired cop) placed very low in my windshield, all of a sudden apologies start flying. What if I didn’t have that sticker? I’ve never been stopped by a black cop – only white ones, and I can only imagine what would happen to me if I didn’t have that sticker in the window. Care to expound on that?
