He talks to a woman and she tells him that his father went to the clinic three times that month and there's nothing they can do about it anymore. He asks to speak with his supervisor of whom she is the supervisor. Once the woman states her name is Shaniqua, he makes a rude comment and she automatically hangs up on him. After this, John has a negative impression of all African American women. He discriminates against all African American women simply because of what happened when Shaniqua failed to provide medical assistance to her father. “Discrimination is an act that hurts a particular group of people because they belong to that group. » In another scene, John is with his partner Hansen and they arrest the Thayers who appear to be having sex. He doesn't arrest them because they're having sex in the car, but because they're part of a particular group he doesn't like. Since his opinion of all African American women has become negative, he forcefully expresses his anger towards Christine by sexually harassing her in front of her husband. Her husband wants to react, but he finds himself in a situation where he can do nothing. Ryan knows what his partner is doing is wrong, but he has to be obedient given how much of a police officer he is. Obedience is following the demands of an authority. He asks his partner to let them go rather than saying he is wrong and has to do it.
