Racial bias can certainly exist. But I don't know if I would say her level of stress was due to his race once he put the officers in the position of having to fight someone who is now resisting arrest and trying to flee.

Are you suggesting a white person resisting arrest, tugging away from officers and trying to flee would have put them more at ease? The officers wouldn't have fought back and tried to continue with their arrest?

Resisting arrest never ends well for anyone, unless that person happens to have actually escaped never to be found again. I can't think of a scenario where I would forcibly resist arrest, knowing full well there are several officers involved.

That young white girl and boy resisted arrest by having a shootout with police, as did Nicolas Cruz, and were not shot, much less killed.
