    Even paw patrol shouldn’t bother for petty bench fights. But since black folks were involved, officers smelled blood.

      There’s a lot of over correction in this thread.

      Police breaking up a recurring altercation is 100% part of what they are there for. A party being black is just unfortunate for optics.

          Yeah this thread has been… enlightening. Lemmy might be more prejudiced than I would have initially thought.

            There’s no nuance involved in systemic racism and Karens weaponizing the police to protect white fragility.

            That’s pretty cut and dry.
