Police Officers or Peace Keepers?
In my last post, (http://deephum.com/the-policing-controversy/), I said:
The police have often (not always) become an “occupying” force for some elements of our population bringing harsh consequences for minor misbehavior while protecting not only the lives and property of the upper and middle classes, but shielding them from facing the consequences of illegal activity – especially in the case of their children. (See below for documentation.) And of course, there is the problem many of us have with the increase of military type equipment in our police departments.
