Honestly, I was thinking of this

White Man & Black Man Carry AR-15 Rifles In Open Carry Video Experiment

A recent video posted to YouTube by Willie Upchuck captures the same incident resulting in two distinctively different responses from police. A White gentleman is politely questioned by police, while a Black man is harshly told to get on the ground at gunpoint.

The black man that volunteered for that must have a death wish. He had to have gone into that thinking there was a very good chance the police would shoot him on sight.

I think the kids filming the experiment were as shocked by the results as anyone watching the video. Very possibly a camera being at the scene of the ~~criminal misuse of police power~~ arrest saved the black guy's life.
