THREAD.
1. Let me take a short moment to profile flagrant incidents of racism from American police that @SheriffClarke says don't exist.

-
So your proof of American police being racist is 4 different text messages some random cops sent to each other? Got anything else?
-
I'm sure we can help you out. What are you looking for?
-
Yeah, looking for a some kind of statistic which justifies calling US police force racist.
-
That's the problem. You're waiting for other white folks to admit to systematic racism and quantify it with numbers and statistics for you.pic.twitter.com/ZAJc6JjLOl

Its because he shares their views, so he doesnt want to see it. Any evidence you gave him, would just be denied anyway.
-
Of course! I don't even know why he speaks. He doesn't want to have a real conversation about the issues.
-
Except that's literally what I'm doing. I asked you to provide proof to justify the claim and you're failing to provide any kind of proof.

"Let's get drunk and kill some niggers" -Text message from one white Ft. Lauderdale officer to anotherhttp://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/Fort-Lauderdale-Police-to-Discuss-Internal-Affairs-Investigation-297057771.html …

Good that the dept quickly fired them. I hope they don't represent the majority of Ft Lauderdale cops.
-
I hope so too. Sadly that kind of thing comes up all too often
-
Also sad that they've probably been hired by another PD. Unfortunately it happens all the time.
-
Sad but likely true. Unfortunately law enforcement attracts racists who are on power trips

This goes beyond simple "racist text messages" - this is violence and conspiracy to commit murder.
-
Agree. Not just "free speech." It's hate.
