Springsteen had a point in the Diallo affair. That was the tragic mistake of a largely white squad of officers on the track of a black man who had a completely different face — not just features but shape. It’s well known that persons of a race will do a better job of distinguishing faces of that same race than faces of a different race. The PD should have known that and let blacks be the ones responsible for identifying the intended subject in a tense manhunt.

There would be none, zilch, zero point here.
