Yes, we are being trained to be cognizant of the inherent biases that all human beings have.
Quote:And this is not just based on semantics. I asked you point blank if law enforcement treat people differently based on their race, and you said "No". Now you are trying to admit that they do, but argue that it does not matter because the racism is subconscious.
I stated no one is engaging in racial profiling as a department. I allowed for the possibility of individual officers doing so. Acting on implicit biases that one is unaware of is not racial profiling. Racial profiling is a conscious deliberate act. You disagree because you don't understand what racial profiling actually is and are making a semantic argument out of this.
Quote:Plus I have given multiple examples of racial profiling that were based on guidelines or orders issued by superiors or agencies.
Sure, from 3-35 years ago (most of them well over a decade old). Since we're talking about present day those examples only prove that it existed at a department level in the past.
Quote:The one thing you are correct about is that there is no use in you attempting to argue against these point any longer.
Not with what laughably passes for your argument, no. Arguing with you on this subject is pointless as you have adequately demonstrated you lack an understanding of the basic foundation of the discussion at hand. Again, I'll concede the last word to you if you feel like you need it.
