Already, protests have begun in Baton Rouge, and the story is making headlines in the liberal world order mouthpieces like the New York magazine, The Huffington Post, BBC and Al Jazeera.

    Anna Quindlen The Color Line Analysis

    "The verdict is in. The jury has spoken. The death of Diallo, a hard working African immigrant, was adjudged a terrible accident. Not murder, not manslaughter. Louima's assailant is in jail. Two of the officers who beat King went to prison. There have been commissions, investigations, demonstrations, public reaction, prater vigils, op-ed pieces, television segments, classroom dialogues. And so Americans ricochet from event to event, speaking of reasonable doubt and prosecutorial competence and ignoring the big picture, the real thing, the most important issue in this county that we try not to talk about. That is, race."(Anna Quindlen)…

    Police Brutality: The Case Of Michael Brown

    There are many people that oppose my opinion. Many people believe that officers do not use excessive force, that what happens is not police brutality and that these officers are only doing their job. There is no doubt that some are doing exactly that, their job, but when there is an officer that is shooting at a young man several times is unnecessary. This happened to Michael Brown, according to Darren Wilson, the officer that shot him, he fit the description a suspect who had stolen cigarettes. The officer pulled over Michael Brown and his friend. Michael Brown got away and the officer chased after him and many witnesses said that Brown was surrendering to the officer, while others said that Brown was charging toward the officer, either way,…

    School Shootings: The Luke Woodham Case

    In October 1997, I heard on the radio that Luke Woodham, a sixteenyear-old, had killed two classmates and wounded seven others in a school shooting in Pearl, Mississippi. In a note, Luke declared: “I am not insane. I am angry. I killed because people like me are mistreated every day.”1 He explained that he was tired of being called a “faggot”; he was additionally enraged that his girlfriend—whom he killed in the shooting—had broken up with him. At the start of the Woodham case, I began examining school shootings. Two months after the massacre in Mississippi came a shooting in Kentucky, then one in Arkansas that same month, and then another in Arkansas three months later in March 1998. There was a shooting in Pennsylvania that April, in Tennessee…

    Rodney King Police Brutality

    Four officers were charged with the merciless beating of Rodney King. For the first time the world got to see what it was like to be a victim of brutality? King suffered extensive and painful injuries, to include head and face trauma, skull fractures, and nerve damage. The recorded video was powerful evidence against the worst type of police brutality. This event not only proved that some police officers abused their power but also reinforced the distrust between some minority communities and law enforcement. People from all walks of life and different races all waited to see what would happen to the officers involved. As many people predicted if the officers involved were not found guilty of assault and other civil liberties violations…

    Michael Brown

    This article was informing us on the first, basic information that was gathered about the case. It includes stories from both sides of the case and contradictions of both. Such as, if Brown was actually innocent or not and exactly how many times he was shot. Personally, I’m almost certain that this entire case was taken too far. It seems to me like the races of the victim and the officer have a lot to do with the intensity of the case and what everyone else has to say about it. If races weren’t leaked when the story was, would people’s opinions on it be different? I think so.…

    Racial Profiling In The Criminal Justice System

    “African American males are twenty two times more likely to be shot by a police officer than their white counterparts. The Oscar Grant case shows this corruption by law enforcement” (Neubauer). This controversial case has been an issue with law enforcements “protecting” our communities when in reality they’re just killing and accusing innocent people because they have the power to. This white officer shot an African American male Oscar Grant, with his gun. According to the officer “he was reaching for his gun but accidentally pulled out his Taser”. The footage that was obtained showed that Grant was already on the ground restrained and did not seem like a threat before he was shot. Many more cases like this one have also shown the same problem, police overusing their power but only when they deal with a colored person. Innocent people have died in the hands of the police and not one single case has been justified in court and it’s all because they’re “black”. The court doesn’t justify or fight for the victims’ rights all they do is protect the law enforcements and say that the victim’s actions seemed like a threat. Black lives matter because we are all equal under the law and if the court doesn’t resolve these issues many more will continue to die in the hands of what we call “safety and security”…
