This is one of the cases where a white police officer gets away with murder and gets an easy punishment. In the case of Christian Taylor shooting, a 19 year old African American male was shot because a police officer assumed that this male had a gun because there was a bulge in his pocket. After Christian was shot they found out that the bulge was his wallet. This is an act of racial profiling because he acted upon his assumptions that he had a gun because he was black. And then to top it off just because he's white he's not convicted of a crime. This is murder and police brutality and his only punishment was getting fired.

Maybe he doesn't see that but he should open his eyes and see that without minorities all those jobs no one wants wouldn't be done without minorities. In conclusion over that stages of this project I've learned a lot about racial profiling. Maybe police officers do it because they have too but it's still irrational to kill another human being because of the mistakes others have done before them.
