as a group, young black men are dangerous...
they are targeted....sadly, that group has earned the rep....
do I think cops over react?...yes....they've had it drummed into their heads that THEIR personal lives is all that matters, not the victims, not the innocent people watching, let alone the perp....
in the past, didn't the cops try to use their guns as a last resort?....now they reach for it first thing....
I knew lots of cops when I was a kid. Lots of them were proud they never had to draw their weapon in 30 years. I’ll also say the perps were a lot more docile in those days.
