[QUOTE="Beerus, post: 6678, member: 1"] Even if there are only like 5% of cops who are actively racist, it is a problem because they are in a position of power and I know some cops will stick together because of the badge but they should be willing, for the safety of the general public, to out someone to the head of their police station if they are acting in a racist manner. While not all cases like this (where a cop kills a black man) have been about race, enough of them have been to show an issue. This man was clearly not armed and not a threat, especially given that there were what, 3 other cops present? Something has to be done about this. The reaction from the general public in that area has been bad though and it is only going to fuel more racism. The man lost his life and that should be the main focus here, not people destroying their own home to get a message across. I get being angry, they have every right to be, everyone should look down on the actions of this cop and the ones who did nothing to stop him but reacting through violence will never solve anything.
