We shot each other with BB guns. Still never shot anybody with a real gun. Never even stabbed anyone.
I AM NOT A RACIST
I don’t know what can be done about this. How can a profession change when it clearly attracts the worst people yet has undying support from a majority of Americans. I’m sure if I go on social media, there some angry white guy defending a cop putting a plastic bag on the head of a handcuffed 12 year old boy.
Watched the first episode last night. Great storytelling. Even knowing a lot of the facts about the case, I was super pissed by the end. Our justice system is a joke.
That we have a president who took out a full page ad to advocate for the death of these kids is horrifying.
"You’re going to get [expletive deleted] shot," said an police officer, in the video.
"Shut the [expletive deleted] up," said an officer, in the video.
In the first minute of the video, officers are seen with guns drawn, and a total of 16 expletives are lobbed at the family.

The officer who initially confronted the family, kicked the leg of Ames with him already in handcuffs. 30 seconds later, that same officer returns to confront the mother with her children.
"It was crazy, very scary over a dollar store. I would have bought that doll had I knew," said Aesha Harper.
"There was about 12 officers out there, and they all looked in disgust at that guy," said Ames. "That one guy who was really acting up, they looked at him in disgust. the way he was acting. All over a Barbie doll."
I have a friend in academia who works with police departments to help them avoid these things. He said a huge move that would help would be for police payouts to victims to not come from taxpayers. Police departments should have to insure themselves as a sort of malpractice insurance.
