[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ahhhh you people are so frustrating. A therapist was trying to help an autistic adult and was shot! Why do we need to bring up the "there are good cops" argument? I know there are good cops, I am friends with one of them. But this THERAPIST was trying to help a man who ran away, but because he was black he was shot. The cop straight up told him he didn't know why he shot him. They then proceeded to put BOTH of them in handcuffs!! This is not ok folks!! I imagine the autistic man will have a hard time not freaking out around cops now. Fantastic.  [/quote]

Then think critically, too.  This was another tragic incident.  But unless you get to the ROOT of the problem, police brutality will not float off.  If a child is raped repeatedly at night, don't you think that cycle will continue somehow - either ending in self-destruction or in harming others.

When a cop gets to that level, it's b/c s/he has seen too much.  Psychological supports should be ongoing for people in high-stress occupations. If this cop dealt mainly with AA males who were dangerous, for example, that's what will shape his brain.  not saying it's right - just saying, folks - Get to to the root.[/quote]

And you would agree that the same should be said for AA who deal on a daily basis with cops who harass them even when they haven't done anything - that shapes their brains as well, right?
