Are you cheering the black officer in Utah for shooting a white kid?
The militarization of the police and the drug war is based largely on race and racial politics starting with Nixon's war on drug and his southern policy. This is a known historical fact. Now if white kids are getting killed as collateral damage in that war, it is no wonder, because when you turn the police into a military power, they are not serving and protecting, and the enemy becomes us. As the expansion of citizen abuse is starting to get folks like T upset with the government over reach, we forget the historical significance of where this began and where it is going. I have been consistent. Shut the drug war down, and demilitarize the police with reductions in the criminal justice system nearing twenty five percent. The worse abusers of black kids are black cops who have become part of this occupation force we politely call police. Barney rules and Andy has left the house.
