Look no further than the rampant white collar crime that goes un-prosecuted in the US. No one is being held accountable for PPP corruption.

Of course being anti-racist is emotional. How can you not feel very upset when contemplating the racial inequities in this country?

I mean, police in both countries can be over-militarized, violent, and racist. That's literally the origin of police in most countries: to coercively enforce the will of the state, usually against working-class and otherwise minority groups

(Also, you must really be willfully blind to think that militarization of American police is an "emotional" statement. It's been happening for decades and has been documented by every newspaper you could care to look at.)
