wow!my powers of intuition are amazing! this is a joke, right? ok, woj, i'll bite. the burden is now on black people to prove "racist" behavior. what's the best way to do that? oh, and i'll try to remember to tell some of the young brothers in los angeles on my next visit that the next time they seem white cops whaling on a black kid in an alley not to assume that it has anything to do with race until they get some proof--you know like, the cops admitting that they hate black people.
