I will say this:

probably people getting stopped by cops due to race happens more often than I realize. But probably lest often than people on the other side care to admit. Do you think it never happens that a minor is stopped by cop and thinks it is because of the color of his skin when in reality it is due to something else(like violating the law)?

You place too much faith in the police system. Some police officers will often over-eseclate a situation for a minor violation. Sometimes “looking suspicious” (such as wearing a hoodie) could be reason for a police officer to stop you.

I still resent and am offended by Frink’s treatment of me and attitude towards me due to my skin color. It is not right.

Yes, and black people used to get lynched.

It also won’t help minorities.

Source?

I think it is ridiculous that I get flak for daring to state an opinion while white. It is probably also one of those logical fallacies. I pretty sure refuting an argument by attacking the skin color of the opinion holder, is not logical valid.

You don’t get flak just because you are white. You get flak because your opinions are wrong.
