The police are enforcers of the law. When was the last time a law was drafted and enacted by the poor? And why is it that the well connected and rich seem to play by different laws.

I like, that im Finland, traffic fines are based on your income, so that if your poor, it stings but if your rich, it’ll also sting. The largest fine for speeding was over 120k Euros.

I agree with your statement that it's not black or white. But there's some severe misalignment of punishment going on from class to race.

Completely agree.
