Why is someone not surviving surgery? Do they have a poor diet, which contributes to riskier health situations?

Why will they be killed by the police? Are they threatening someone or do they look like they will?

All of the things you listed come down to attitude and personal choice.

Yup, everything bad that has ever happened or will ever happen to you is your fault.

In many places in the U.S. "look like they will" is synonymous with "having dark skin". What a horrible attitude and personal choices these people must have.

Your post has no basis in reality. Stop believing the media. It just makes you look foolish.

Yeah, really the takeaway message from much of the news coming out of the US over the last year or so is pretty much that everyone is treated both equally and fairly. I don't understand anyone who complains about racism, the ever widening gulf between rich and poor etc.
