To much policing when it comes to intrusion into lives and harassment and assault. Pulling people over and using lies to search their vehicles. Digging into people's pockets and arresting them for "illegal drugs". To much policing in terms of putting people disproportionately into prison.
As far as caring about crimes carried out against blacks.
As we see the police don't care that much.
Police "intruding" and "harassing" is your emotional subjective feelings about their actions they take because they care about and trying to prevent future criminal harm done in black communities and against black people.
You cannot catch or prevent criminal shootings without "intruding into lives", "pulling vehicles over" and "searching" suspects, and generally doing things that those having it done to them might call "harassment".
If you didn't try to equate these essential policing actions with "assault" and "using lies", you'd have more credibility. And it might help to show a shred of evidence that the degree to which these essential actions devolve into such criminal actions by cops is notably higher when the suspect is black (warning: all such data claimed as "evidence" for this presented on this board to date fails to show any such thing, and only shows that cops engages in policing actions in general in black areas due to the many fold higher crime rates of every type, including shootings.
When a person was just shot down the street, cops are more likely to lower their bar for probable cause to search a vehicle filled with young men. Every relevant piece of data confirms that such shootings are far more likely to occur in mostly black neighborhoods and the shooter and the victim are likely to be black, making it more likely that being stopped down the street from a shooting is far more likely to entail a carload of black men than white men due entirely to where people live. IOW, because blacks are far more likely to live near violent criminals, they are more likely to experience "intrusions into their lives" and getting "harassed" by the cops as they investigate those violent crimes. The actions that innocent members of the community experience as such harassment are the same actions that increase the probability that the criminals are found and thus reduce the likelihood those innocent community members are harmed by those criminals in the future. There is always a difficult balance between protecting the public from real threats and having those protective actions being an intrusion and harassment. The harassment of innocent blacks by cops is greater because the threat to blacks by criminals in their neighborhoods are greater.
Obviously there are lousy cops or even honest errors in judgment that lead cops to sometimes "harass" well beyond what is useful in enforcing violations of the law, and that occurs no matter the race of the suspect. The evidence is weak as to whether such incidents are notably more common against blacks, not in raw frequency, but relative to the much higher frequency with which cops need to "intrude" in response to much higher frequency of actual criminal activity.
Some degree of racist-based additional level of excessive harassment likely exists and just be hard to document with systematic data. However, the evidence supports that extra incidents of harassment of blacks can be almost entirely accounted for by extra incidents of legit response to crime, with the normal average rate of excess and error in the application of those responses. Thus, whatever added racism-based harassment exists is only a fraction of the harassment being complained about. So, any massive reduction in such "intrusions" can only come with a notable reduction in protecting blacks against the far far more probable threat to their property and lives posed by their neighbors.
