These police shootings have got to stop. But, the way they will is stop being a threat to them. Obey by the law and I promise you will live

If cops are in the wrong they deserve punishment, I agree!!!! If you want the facts look at bullet point 1. Blacks aren't targeted...... pic.twitter.com/0thz4oLS6s

Racism exists because people let it exist! Like I said if you are black, white, blue, yellow just obey by the law & cops need to do the same

But I'm done with this topic. It's a scenario that will never be changed until you take race out of it

Honestly, I feel as though I could have written these tweets myself. 

Hold on, let me explain...

In no way do I agree with Grayson Murray's black-and-mostly white opinion on the state of totalllllly non-existent discrimination in the police force. I don't spend anywhere near enough time wandering the oh-so-fairways where this type of innuendo was reinforced via interactions with his extremely diverse and cultured peers on the greens of 'Pleasantville'.

I just think that if given his name, profession, and the picture above, I probably could have typed out - almost word for word - what his thoughts were on the matter. The cliched narratives and baseless, context-free arguments used to completely marginalize the plight of African Americans while blindly supporting the entirety of a profession that historically has a corruption issue? What better time to put them down on a public platform than immediately after the exoneration of a cop that shot a black man dead in front of his wife and kid for legally carrying a firearm?!?

Those nauseatingly repetitive talking points that used nitpicked numbers and shameless victim blaming to claim that the long standing concept of racial profiling is as real as the "threat" that Trayvon Martin served as don't belong anywhere in society. However, if there were a place where they could feel at home it would be on the Twitter feed of a professional golfer named Grayson who was once forced to play without a tooth, recently fired his caddy mid-round, and has used social media to publicly hit on a naive teenager who quickly learned why he's so detestable...
