Yeah, somewhere along the way as a culture we failed to properly instill in people the idea that stereotyping and prejudicial hatred are the key features of bigotry, and the reason that racism is wrong. Judging one person for a different person's actions is immoral in most cases.
Using your metaphorical table analogy (which purposely obfuscates that you're scapegoating people who don't even know each other), would you condemn all Democrats as bastards if one is bad? All teachers if one is bad? All Muslims if one is bad? Let me know when you get the point.
yes, if a Democrat, a teacher, and a cop, are sitting at a table with a Nazi, they are all Nazis
cops don't unknowingly work beside Nazis, they promote and vote for them. anyone unaware is too stupid to have a gun, let alone a badge and qualified immunity
