I don't get what Tiger guy is on about

Black people are actually over-represented in the police force in the US compared to population. About 11% of the adult US population is black, about 13% of cops are black. About 20% of cops are hispanic when about 12-15% of the adult population is hispanic.

Not saying that means cops aren't racist (They often are, I think the percentage of black or hispanic police chiefs or commissioners is like 3%) but the logic of "NO BLACK PEOPLE WATN TO JOINT!?" is just a falsehood. Plenty do.

Hell the very idea that if someone is black or hispanic then they probably have no interest in upholding the law is a really racist thought to have.
glad to see my tag for you still holds true...
