Police killings of black people in the United States are reminiscent of lynchings and the government must do far more to protect them, a United Nations working group says in a report that will be debated at the U.N. Human Rights Council on Monday.
The hard-hitting criticism - drawing a comparison between modern police behaviour and mob killings of blacks in the 19th and 20th centuries - comes at a time of renewed racial tension in the United States.
This week Charlotte, North Carolina, saw street riots over the shooting of a black man, Keith Scott, by a black police officer. On Friday, a white police officer who fatally shot an unarmed black man turned herself into authorities in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

People automatically assume that all lynched people were really innocent as new born babes.
Some were innocent, but most really did commit the crimes they were hanged for.
You mean the north korean and iranian governments
Which no doubt will assist in investigating us for human rights
The Trojan horse comes to mind. With all these “refugees” coming in .... how many more shootings by mussies until the DOJ or government or whatever it is in DC acts? I used to just semi-carry but now I carry all the time. 0bama has made us what we are now.
My uniform is blue, but it will NEVER come with a blue helmet. These usurpers will never run me.
