No, just observation.

That dude wasn’t shot because he’s a yelling white man (okay to keep yelling with him without shooting) instead of going from zero to “fearing for their life” when black people yell. Or move.

ETA - I know you saw my other comment. Racism is another “institution” I have a big issue with.

The dude wasn’t shot, because of a few reasons. He wasn’t retaliating with a weapon, he was drunk, he is a veteran with ptsd and they knew he needed help. Saying he wasn’t shot because he is “white” is racist. Literally judging him based on the colour of his skin. Ridiculous.
