I also sometimes wonder if the “police brutality” complained of by black people for decades, but generally dismissed by many of us, may just be moving out of the ghetto into Main Street. IOW, might they have had a point all along?

You might be right.

Also the militarization of police is horrible. That Pentagon stuff should be given to the National Guard and only brought out if a Governor feels it's absolutely necessary. To routinely have police departments with war surplus is intimidating. Same with Homeland Security... having attack helicopters landing in American cities is thuggy... at best.

We can identify with the black community in some of this... What's your solution?

I don’t have a solution. Wish I did.

Automation. Robots are cheap and expendable therefore do not need to kill when threatened, nor would that ever be legal. Catch ferals with a net and send them off to a walled city for the rest of their life. It accomplishes absolutely nothing to catch criminals using military assault tactics then release their catch a few hours later.
