You're swapping cause for effect, which seems to be pretty standard for you. You're telling me it's because blacks commit crimes that they are followed,
It's called 'profiling' and it happens all the time. It happens because it is simply the way it is that blacks cause a disproportionate amount of crime - and it is to be noted that the vast majority of the crimes they commit are perpetrated against other black people.

they have followed the President of the United States in the past.
And he'd
never break any laws, right?

Have you ever gone into a mall and been shadowed because of your skin colour?
A major reason people turn to gangs and violence is because mainstream society expects them to be criminals and treats them as such nearly from birth. They want a place they can belong, deprive them of that feeling in legal ways and you leave them with illegal ways to get the feeling of belonging. This is an example of why suppression tactics actually help gangs recruit.
And at the same time using your reasoning of ignoring probable threats leads to idiocy like the stupid twit who went to Somalia and got raped for over a year because she was mentally incapable of concluding that Somalians are dangerous. This same git would experience the same result (and maybe worse) if she were to visit Detroit under the same circumstances.
This goes back to something I've said repeatedly to Canadians like yourself is that you don't understand some of these dynamics because
you don't have to live with them. It's different when you live here and observe that in my middle class neighborhood you're generally pretty safe walking around so long as you avoid the apartment complexes where the blacks live.
It's also an observable fact that most of the crime in my neighborhood comes from black people who live in the ghetto a few miles away. Likewise, in Stockton, California it's the Mexicans who are (literally) up in arms against black criminals killing people, robbing people, and raping women in their neighborhoods.
Not that I'm saying all black people are a problem. Not at all. Lots of them don't even rate a second glance because they're well dressed, not yelling the way ghetto blacks talk to each other, and they don't walk around with their eyes sizing up everything in sight.
These guys, however, rate a second glance especially if they're behind you at the ATM machine:

And if they're behind you at the ATM and you decide to stand on your liberal attitude instead of doing the sensible thing and getting back into your car and burning rubber then you, just like the Canadian reporter in Somalia,
deserve whatever happens next.
Seriously, your attitude on this topic echoes the sentiment of "Let them eat cake!"
You and a number of your countrymen expect that everyone else in the world should comport themselves as if they live in your tranquil little Elysium when the fact of the matter is that you have no damned clue what you're talking about.
You try walking through South Sacramento on Meadowview Road on a Friday night with your attitude and see what happens. Be sure to tell your attackers that you're a liberal Canadian and see what difference it'll make.
