Black New York Police Department officers say they face the same racial profiling as Eric Garner, Reuters reported.

This Raw Story report comes after two police officers were killed in retaliation of black men being killed by police with no punishment.

Media reports say Eric Garner was killed in New York when a police officer put him in an illegal choke hold for selling single cigarettes. Then unarmed teenager Michael Brown in Missouri was fatally shot by a police officer for reportedly stealing cigars and then attacking the officer.

Both cops were acquitted and protests continued for the justice of the many black men being killed by white officers who are not punished for their actions.

However, the suspect who killed the police officers had murdered his girlfriend prior and killed two innocent officers who were not involved with Garner or Brown.

After interviewing 25 black NYPD officers, Reuters learned that even black officers are faced with racial profiling when they are off duty. Of those officers, only one has not been subjected to racial profiling.

One of the cops, Desmond Blaize said he was stopped while jogging in the park but because he had his police I.D. on him, things did not escalate.

Other officers reported having guns pulled out on them, stopped for no reason and having their heads slammed against their cars; all because they were suspected to have committed a crime.

"It makes good headlines to say this is occurring, but I don't think you can validate it until you look into the circumstances they were stopped in," Bernard Parks, the former chief of the Los Angeles Police Department, who is black.

"Now if you want to get into the essence of why certain groups are stopped more than others, then you only need to go to the crime reports and see which ethnic groups are listed more as suspects," he added. "That's the crime data the officers are living with."

Although blacks are listed to make up 73 percent of the crimes in NYC, many argue that it is because that is the group that is targeted the most.

Still, studies from universities show that there is a racial bias in the American psyche that correlates black maleness with crime.
