- colorincorrect 7y agoand don't forget the fact that police (by intended function) go after criminals: are you supposing that every obvious criminal that police go after are actually the oppressed one? well.... maybe you can make that argument.... but i think that is beyond the scope of the original intent.
- hannasanarion 7y agoDo they? More often I see the police protecting the neonazis, or marching with them out-of-uniform. The FBI has been warning about white supremacist infiltration of police departments since 2006[1], and nothing has been done about it, because the infiltration is already complete: most cops are at least comfortable with white supremacy. Those who speak out against white supremacy from within police departments get kidnapped and beaten by their colleagues, or left in dangerous situations without backup.[2] 1. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/fbi-white-supremacists-in-law-enforcement https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/fbi-white-supremacists-i... 2. https://www.thisamericanlife.org/414/right-to-remain-silent#play https://www.thisamericanlife.org/414/right-to-remain-silent#...
