Short, sweet and to the point. If these allegations are correct as they seem to be; it is a unconscionable that in 2015 that racial profiling is going on in the Home of The Free, where we profess that all men are created equal.
It has to feel very hopeless for someone to be accused of a crime and found guilty if they didn’t commit it, regardless if was is a traffic violation or murder.
The people that are responsible for this unnecessary harassment and racial targeting should be dealt with to the full extent of the law. I wonder if these idiots that are abusing their powers ever considered how they would feel if the circumstances were reversed.
Our country has gone in reverse in the last few years and I think that the leaders on all sides are responsible. Most people are like sheep in a herd; where their leaders go they will follow.
On the other side of the coin; it is the responsibility of everyone not to give the authorities any reason to suspect them by the way they dress and their behavior. Most often it is those two elements that sends out the wrong message.
Jesse Jackson fears black youths: racism?

Even Jesse Jackson said a few years ago, “There is nothing more painful to me … than to walk down the street and hear footsteps and start thinking about robbery, then look around and see somebody white and feel relieved.”
Maybe at some point in our history people can look beyond color and treat each-other with the respect we all deserve. We don’t have to like or love one-another, just respect them.
