I generally agree with you but have you not seen the news? They get away with killing innocent people illegally all the time. Do you think they're actually afraid of getting in trouble over stealing 40 bucks?

And that stuff is terrible. But I think it’s caused by systematic racism. (aka what we should actually worry about)

Like the comic empathizes the wrong thing. It reduces valid concerns with police to the level of sovereign citizens.
