The Left claims systemic racism prompts attacks by black cops

It also appears that the Memphis Police Department has been lowering hiring standards. Were these five black cops hired for “diversity” and/or because cops are now maligned as “systemically racist,” resulting in early retirements, fewer applicants, and therefore lowering hiring standards to maintain manpower?

If white cops had beaten Nichols, that would have been an example of systemic racism. Black cops did beat him, and it’s still systemic racism. Why, then, does the Left want a “diverse” police force? Bad cops come in all colors. The goal should be good cops, no matter the race.

Finally, there is a sad, tragic throughline in almost all of these dead black suspect/police encounter cases: resisting arrest. Why is it taboo for “black leaders” and blacks in the media to encourage black suspects not to resist arrest?
