Most of them who were brutalized deserved it.

I would say that it is greater than 80%.

What I have observed is that there are many people who classify themselves as faultless, when in reality, they are far from it.

The kind of people who gather around an incident, and egg people on, then are surprised when things escalate out of control and they find themselves on the ground in a choke-hold. Or get a bullet in the ass.

And they insist they are blameless.

This is in no way stating that injustices and brutality do not happen. They do. And I am certain they happen at a higher rate with people of color.

But I reject that it is primarily racism, and maintain it is more a problem of being in close proximity to areas that have higher amounts of crime and violence.
