So I’ll respond thr your post in a couple of ways.
To your point about police brutality impacting black people more than white people, this isn’t necessarily cut and dry. A higher percentage of black people experience it, but there is a higher crime rate among the black community, primarily due to poorer upbringings which can largely be attributed to historical racism.
To your personal story, that’s just anecdotal evidence. You can share your personal experience, but that can’t truly be used to justify and opinion one way or another.
Finally, to your point that black people feel more threatened by police, I believe that’s true for sure. However, that doesn’t mean their fear is justified by anything other than what they’ve been told or what they have personally experienced. That’s why I’m saying the false narrative that cops are always on the hunt to kill black people is so wildly dangerous. If you get people to truly believe that, then they’re obviously going to be scared.
