And therein lies the problem. If true, this comment by Brian explains why police officers think it's their right to be the judge, jury and the executioner. Today's law enforcement officers are behaving more like a well regualted Militia , treating black citizens like enemy forces and adversaries. Ask a question, shot. Hands up, shot. Failure to use a turn signal, arrested. No front license plate, murdered. Police are waging war against black citizens, and it's getting fed from the top down.
Someone needs to inform police officers this is not a police state and we have this little thingy called the 4th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America that protects ALL citizens from unreasonable search and seizure by the government. Police can't stop, search, and arrest citizens just because they have a badge and a gun, they must have probable cause. And No, driving, walking, shopping, playing, while black is not probable cause, that's racial profiling.
Police also need an education regarding the 13th Amendment to the Constitution, the amendment that abolished slavery. We be Free, but today's Police act like they are a modern day Slave Patrol.
It's not young, black males who need to the lessons. It's the police who need to be educated.
