That's what she said
>where the police will strangle you for 10 minutes straight over petty robbery (if you're black). Where being shot in the back by police is commonplace (if you're black). American police (and the American people in general) fetishize violence constantly and it's fucking disturbing. There's no country on the planet that celebrates violence the way you do.

See how easy it is to list stereotypes?

>I'm Irish
Well, you're country's pretty small

Which country? I suspect you're confusing it with a city.

>they are events that I witnessed with my own eyes
The plural of anecdote is not data. Statistically, the events you are describing are very rare.
