    You most certainly can't expect responses to your question without an opinion of your own expressed first.

    Living in a diverse city I experience it everyday. At work, in stores, by police. I know I have an advantage.

    As Louis CK said in one of his stand up acts: there's never been a time in human history when it wasn't ok to be white. I could go into a time machine and go anywhere at anytime in history and be accepted. At some point, we are going to pay for that shit!

    They would have had to lucked out and encountered the same cop to prove anything.

    Also, what if someone got shot doing this "experiment"? Idiots that open carry AR-15 rifles usually travel in packs in cut-off Hank Williams T-Shirts, thus police are able to easily identify them as idiots. Someone walking alone down a street with an assault rifle is much less common, thus it will provoke a different response from a cop.
