By police? That sounds terrible to me. But it's true. We are better than this.
Oh pleeeeze!!!
If it's true they need to clean up their own neighborhood. No one else can do it. It's called taking back the hood. If you know people whining that tune, you can relay the solution to them.
Also mention that it is their job to teach their kids how to behave around others, including cops. Respect is pretty much the ticket.
Fact-free authoritarian rant is fact-free.

Oh, Thrifty where is your christianity when it comes to black people ? For all I can see , is nowhere to be found.
Thanks, the little question I had about you is answered.
This isn't exclusive to African Americans, all parents worry for the safety of their children when their children are off alone in the world. I know I do. I've even put him in self-defense classes for this very reason.
We live in a world of risk, that's just a fact and there's nothing we can do about that outside of informing, preparing and teaching our kids how to assess risks themselves.
Beyond that, no govt. is obligated to or even capable of effectively eliminating the fears, whether reasonable or not, of a population under its laws. We can argue whether a govt. is purposed to protect people or protect their rights, but to relieve their fear is a whole other animal altogether.
