Whatever injustice has been done...
...nothing has been done to stop the dangerous and disturbing trend of militarizing our local police forces. It is not just a problem for the black communities, it is a problem for all of us.
The reality of police brutality is not something to be casually dismissed. It has become part of the culture of police forces in our towns and cities. The reason this happens so often is because law enforcement officers have become separated from our justice system. It seems they can murder citizens at random and never be prosecuted or suffer any consequences?
