Yea, and yet they still get off so to say they've been neutered is false.

I think the issue w/ the the Democratic Party is that they don't have people at the helm or of importance/influence that can relate to both people of color and working class/poor whites. It's really shouldn't be this difficult to show one group that their needs and issues align w/ another that for years they've been told that they don't, and yet they still can't get it right. The GOP wins on suppression and separation, the Dems have to win on unity.
The Louima case ended in jail time for the officers.

GOP and Faux News have done an excellent job at convincing poor whites their struggles are completely different than poor minorities. You got chronically unemployed white people voting for a party who doesn't want them to have healthcare and wants to cut any govt assistance their receiving. It's mind boggling how people have fallen for this, maybe one day they'll wake up, but I doubt it.

The point of me bringing it up was just to highlight how wild NYC police brutality was in that time. You think a cop would dare pull some **** like that in this era? And there are many cases that at the time were more localized that people from outside that area would never hear.
Kill someone, get paid vacation, found not guilty, leaves PD for another or retires with pension and donations from a gofundme.
Are things "better" yea, but not because the men and women in the force have matured and see those actions of years past as detestable but because they know they aren't as "free" any longer.You're moving goal posts. Things going on now are not as bad as they were back in the day. And this was before Obama. But now with social media everything is now out in the light thus keeping things on a more even keel. The 90s were far worse but nobody really knew unless you actually lived in those cities or the story went national (not viral). There's a difference.
Remember Abner Louima?
I hope when Rico encounters one of these neutered police officers that he doesn't make the mistake to start "reaching" for anything other than some BS talking points.

Are you implying I've never dealt with racist police? Because I have many times, in NYC as well as FFX county. But I'm old school. Parents taught me to comply and not ruffle feathers. A child of the 90s. And that's why I'm still alive with no criminal history today.

You know you've done too much if Rusty doesn't even wanna bother typing up an argument
