If you believe America’s police target black people for harsh treatment simply because of the color of their skin, then there is a good chance you have listened to Al Sharpton and his National Action Network and consider them credible observers of the country’s social scene.
America’s newspapers and media routinely pass along Sharpton’s sentiments as though they represent reality. But the Tawana Brawley affair, whose upcoming 30-year anniversary is next year, suggests the sentiments social justice activists represent aren’t so much the real issues blacks face in America, but rather artificial narrative-making.

The whole "police war on blacks" false narrative has one purpose and one purpose only.
The purpose is to facilitate the Federal Government takeover of local law enforcement.
Is that a euphemism for Fake News?
Every evil thing goes back to Soros.
Funny how the Union never speaks out in support of their members.
Try me.
Wow, is that headline ever misleading. The agenda he describes is exactly what any thinking American has known it to be ever since the bull sh*t started in Ferguson MO.
“Wow, is that headline ever misleading.”
I know.
It does not describe the article. Read the article. Ignore the headline.
Yeah, but "You'll NEVER Believe What Happens Next while the Cameraman Kept on Filming"
Why can’t someone just do the whole world a service? Fill in the blank.
The Police Union publicly supported Trump. Every cop I know is for Trump. The rest of the civil servants were for Hillary.
How many cops do you know?
Fake news...Don’t worry, Facebook will fix it.
So? They still overwhelmingly support DemocRATS.

There are literally thousands of other examples.
“What I find suspicious is you have two stauch DemocRAT constituencies at war here. You have your blacks and you have your cop Unions.”
In THIS election you didn’t have the cops themselves——they despise Obama and as a result would never vote for Hillary.
Most cops these days aren’t libs anyway.
.
.
Lord o' mercy.
Besides, my criticism is not of the cops themselves but the Unions they are forced to pay dues to.
Do you have any reason for making that statement?
It is not true.
Thank you.
Yes. You may find the occasional Republican they endorsed, but, by and large, they use members' dues to get DemocRATS elected.
