Yea, its pretty fucked up. Glad they are going to hang his ass.
Most of the time I am pretty pro cop, but that does not extend to backing them when they are clearly wrong.
You step over the line, you need to go down, no matter who you are.
I can see the cops treating blacks somewhat differently based on how they act, it seems their entire culture has adopted a thug mentality. I know that that is probably not true, but its all you see in the media. Scroll through the mug shots in any newspaper. It probably feels to the cops like ALL blacks they encounter in their job is some kind of asshole.
However, that does not make it open season. Despite the experience you have with them, you Still have to treat them with the same respect as everyone else.
Its one of the tougher parts of being a cop I recon, being measured by a slightly longer yard stick than regular folks.
