The sad part is that it seems African-Americans in our town (Seattle) seem to want it that way. Anytime a white officer takes action involving someone from 'their community' they rally, involve the liberal media, whine, block freeways, etc. I give it a few years and the PD will have 'black units' to patrol the central district, etc. Oh sure, they'll have a few token whites in that unit, but they'll all be desk jockeys.

I remember the black preachers who raged at the Seattle media for showing pictures of black mobs beating, maiming, robbing and murdering whites during Mardi Gras last year. The news photographers had actually censored themselves; after catching a few shots of violence, they would turn away. But the black preachers and community leaders forgot to thank them for that. Black leaders demanded the media stop showing black criminals in the act.

The part about rallying and blocking freeways, etc., is news to me. Do you have any cites/links/names of cases/general dates (e.g., March, 2001)? I'd love to do some research on the matter.

I'm convinced that's the goal.

That might be a solution. If blacks prefer black policemen to patrol their neigbourhoods, why not?

You are probably right. And it may not be that bad of an idea. The black criminals will not be able to scream "racist!" if they are arrested by someone of their own race. The police maintain that fine line between peace and anarchy. The liberal mindset continues to try to obliterate that fine line.
