Is that true? The recent spat of police brutality issues is less about the actual brutality(because there will always be asshole cops), but the shrugworthy response the police and society at large gave to the point where AS many folks rallied behind the cops because obviously in that kind of confrontation (black male, white cop) of course he had to fear from his life.

The thing is, you can't start giving pats on the back with things as fucked up as they are now.
