I'm curious why qualified your statement with "racial" and not "racist?"

WTH are you talking about? "Racist" appears in that unedited post. "Racial" does not.

There's plenty of racism in Mississippi, both sides. (I might argue about MS vs my hometown in TX, the main difference being that it doesn't come up much there because of the ratios. But it is definitely there.) The point was that as bad as Mississippi can be, you absolutely will not find that small of a percentage of black police officers in a town with that large of a black population. It just. does. not. happen. Anybody who thinks that's not a contributing factor to the current mess just hasn't thought it through.
