Are white racists against blacks as justified as

black prejudice against police if it is based on personal experience, or not and why?

(of course the question should be "white prejudice against blacks" but this wording creates some additional up-front resistance, easily overcome, which can then increase the chances of the argument convincing others)

there are some apparently likely responses (ie. choice), but i think they open additional questions. ie. "nature/nurture. are all cops bad?" then start chipping away at the instinctive thought-processes (cops... bad... cops... bad... especially if my friends are around listening to what i am saying.... especially then... cops.... bad..." and broaden the questions to find appropriate levels of abstraction for analysis.
