Most? As in not all?

Exactly. Nothing works 100% of the time. "Come out with you hands up" may work most of the time, but once in a while it just provokes a hail of bullets or a hostage situation, for example.

Really? I thought you read the news more than that. Google "home invasion fake police" for lots of examples. You can also find examples of plainclothes police carrying out no-knock raids.

Watch plenty of news, have not seen this. But if you say so, OK.

It's a socioeconomic bias, not a race bias. Agreed that the race card is overplayed.

Waaaay overplayed.
