I get it, and I agree with you 90%. But I think what we've (wealthier, white-er Americans) learned about race in the last 24 months shows that there's a big difference between "isolated incidents" and "decentralized but widespread behavior". I think that with respect to stuff like this, the second phrase is a better description. Any of these things are Gestapo tactics, the stuff of European and Latin American nightmare; the fact that they're not all coordinated out an office in DC is more an American curiosity than a point in their favor. At least that's my view.
