I don’t think this will reduce use of sterotyoes. They can actually hone in people who have past priors and abuse their power, even if the ones with past priors have done nothing wrong in the encounter with cops. Because no one will believe those with past priors.
I have seen many cops abuse their power, have short tempers and break laws.
- ddxxdd 7y agoI believe Duskstar's point was that minorities without records would be treated better, and non-minorities with records would be treated worse. Thus, police would react to someone's criminal history, and not just their skin color.
- DuskStar 7y agoYep, pretty much! Sort of the reverse of what happens when you prevent employers from inquiring if you have a criminal background.
