I got into with it with a couple guys on 261 who were saying "don't want to deal with police, don't commit crimes",

This is a clueless and insulting statement. Karens and DWB have been around for decades. But now more than ever it seems, doing, your job, minding your business or any routine chore can bring police attention based on a persons skin color.

Talking to my Jim Crow survivor relatives, it seems to be getting worse. It's more random.

In their defense, I'm sure they feel being black is a crime. >_>
