But if a black security follows a black person around the shop is it racist?
Please don't use 'whataboutery' as reason not to answer
@Beyonve
I can see Godwins Law surfacing soon.

I answered already. If it's because he's black then it's racial profiling so it's not ok. I know exactly what was happening with my lad and the reaction of the security guard meant he knew it too.
If you want to play that game here's one for you
Would this thread even exist if the leeds footage had been just white people fighting the police?
The answer you're looking for is 'no'.

Come on Tinhead, you're not a provincial carrot cruncher. Would you not agree that any negative profiling due to the colour of a persons skin should be called racism? The colour of the profiler's skin does not change this.
The question is why would they think this way?

It's quite clearly white kids setting fire to the bus. Must be Norman or Saxon immigrants.

The answer is yes.
Plenty of those videos you like to post where police are heavy handed on white protests yet allow Palestine protests that break the law go unhindered.
Are you trying to say the Manchester incident was racist?
What that copper done was wrong but if it was a white man that broke the women coppers nose and the violence that led up to it (not on social media but captured on police cameras) he would have lost his temper with him as well
@Beyonce so the black security are racist. Thank you for clearing that up.

The imaginary black security in your 'it didn't happen actually but I'm trying to make an excuse for racists ' ?
As Beyonce said - its not a person's skin colour that makes them racist. It's their words and actions. The bloody irony of having to spell that out...
And if the copper had responded to a white guy in the same way (I'm not convinced but let's do another of your alternate universe versions) ... then he would still be a bloody disgrace. If you can't see the problem of the facts - a white police officer kicking an already restrained brown man in the head whilst he's face down on the floor - then you need bigger eye holes in your tin helmet.

Edited to change to
* just watched the kicking event
That copper is a **** and needs a sacking.
He can't even say he was resisting arrest he was flat out on his face.
And the plod wonder why no one respects them when shot like that goes on.

I didn't even realise the colour of the person on the ground.myself.
It was an extreme action I agree with that.
Those were armed police and before that happened a WPC got her nose broken and the other 3 cops injured.its funny we've not seen that video
What would have happened if one of them lost control of their weapon in the airport
I find find it all pathetic imho - the protests afterwards and I hear more tonight.
I cannot understand when confronted by armed police they behaved in the way they did.

I asked because some people say only white people can be racist.

No excuses for what the copper did it was wrong but I can't see how it's racist.
If a white person had gone berserk resulting in a number of injuries to officers, including the woman's broke nose I don't think the copper would've stopped to think about the colour of his skin before losing his cool.
Seems some people look for racism in everything

One was Asian one was Romanian. 2 for 1 at Specsavers.

Still yet to see any racism in this video. The colour and ethnicity of this chap is irrelevant. What is relevant is his crimes. Doesn't make a difference if he looks like Mr Blobby. As soon as he stepped off the plane he was arrested as he was a wanted man. Him and his mates thought it a good idea to be taking on armed coppers and attempted to take their weapons. As I see it they got off lightly as they could just as easily have been shot. No sympathy whatsoever. As for the protesters, well they're going to get even more upset aren't they when these clowns quite rightly get sent down.

'Some people' are wrong.
WRT to police man and the guy he kicked, ifs and buts are irrelevant. In a climate where our police forces are repeatedly seen as institutionally racist (and more) it is very naive to not see the important dynamic of a white officer abusing a brown man in this way.
