They only “acted appropriately” if America has simply decided to become a police state and such blatant racism is to be accepted as the norm. #Outrageous #SoWrong

Cops with guns drawn handcuffed a Black real estate agent, a 15-year-old Black child, and the child's father, who had come to look at a house to buy. Police say "race played no role" and that cops acted "reasonably and appropriately." huffpost.com/entry/black-rea…

That 15yr-old boy will be traumatized for a long time over this. The family is owed more than an apology, which actually they didn't even receive. If this police dept. calls their rules "appropriate" then that community should make it clear there's nothing appropriate about them.

Race played no role....maybe not by the police. But what about that 911 caller?

What's your take on the 29 year-old Chicago cop who was murdered last night after returning from maternity leave? Was that blatant racism?
