I could be wrong, but I think the issue isn't that people don't think it's true so much as they don't think it's as prevalent as it's made out to be. Like if a racist is working at Walmart and eyes & follows a black kid simply because they're black, that doesn't mean that Walmart is guilty of being racist or is promoting white privilege.

But when a thousand cases are examined, a pattern emerges of blacks shot more readily than whites?
Isn't the pattern that more WHITES are shot?
