full title.............Baltimore cops 'are racist, violent and lawless': Report claims city's police discriminate against blacks and aren't held accountable when they use excessive force ..................Baltimore police officers routinely discriminate against blacks, repeatedly use excessive force and are not adequately held accountable for misconduct, according to a damning Justice Department report.

The report said officers make large numbers of stops — mostly in poor, black neighborhoods — with dubious justification and unlawfully arrest citizens for speech deemed disrespectful.

During a ride-along with Justice Department officials, a sergeant instructed a patrol officer to stop a group of young African-American males on a street corner, question them and order them to disperse.

'When the patrol officer protested that he had no valid reason to stop the group, the sergeant replied, "Then make something up." This incident is far from anomalous,' the report said.

Is it discrimination? Or self-preservation?

Another "first" for the Left:

-- During the Democrat Party convention, so as to counter Trump's brilliant offensive the Left was forced to acknowldge America's greatness.

-- Now the Left must acknowledge the racism of the significantly "black" Baltimore police department

Must be really tough on them, though I suspect that due to their lack of introspection and of any concept of hypocrisy those loudmouths on the Left likely don't even realize what they've been compelled to do to themselves.

Crime will continue to climb in Baltimore as the police force disengages almost to the point of being a crime scene management department. Why would you put your life at risk for these ungrateful bastar*ds.
