7. Was this really worth all the effort?
I mean, you even had to correct yourself, it was that lame.

Man, you really are hard up today, huh?

2. Gee, what part of him shows "racist, bigot" cop?
He looks like an ordinary cop to me. Is it possible you can read minds?

4. Don't see that at all
Looks to me like an old timer thinking, "This will not end well."

9. I guess, and this is a big guess, that the point of your "joke"
is that anyone who suggests that people of color are discriminated against in the criminal justice system is obviously crazy, since people of color are also employed as police officers. Well there you go. Problem solved. Everyone stop all their whining. Don't worry. Be Happy.
