it’s a rare day indeed that i agree (sort of) with Geraldo. personally, i dont think there will be any legal issues for the officer once all of the facts are in but....to geraldo’s point, of course race would play a huge influence in any legal proceedings. the fact anyone would disagree is shocking really.

"a huge influence"

Really? Cite a number of cases where race was a huge influence. The inference is that blacks are being unduly punished. My view after fifty years of noticing events is that blacks are not punished nearly enough for their crimes. Many blacks in the educational system are treated with kid gloves for many years until they finally commit a serious crime.

That's why there's such a high pct. of blacks in the prison system. They commit far more crimes per capita than other Ameicans. I don't know how many crime reports I've read where a black perp committed the ultimate crime, murder, and had a rap sheet three feet long. Sorry, don't buy the "blacks are mistreated by the legal system" meme.
