I still don’t like the cops…

Well….another day, another egregious case of police brutality here in Michigan…on January 28th, cops in Inkster pulled over another black man and proceeded to beat him on the pretense that he “rolled through a stop sign” and then yelled at a cop that he was going to kill him. Little problem here….this man has never been in trouble in his life…not once…and is a 37 year employee of Ford with a perfect record there. The primary excuse of the cops was that he was in a “new car in a known drug area” and, sure enough, they found drugs on the guy…the only problem was the dashcam that showed one of the cops, who had been accused of planting drugs and guns on people before, taking the bag of drugs out of his pocket and slipping it into the suspect’s pocket as he was beating him. Oh, and the drug test done at the hospital showed nothing…not even aspirin in his system. One neat little fact is the cop, nicknamed “robocop” cost the city of Detroit millions of dollars in settlements for shooting unarmed people and other abuse while he was employed there….but, guess what? He’s still on the job, still collecting his pay, still abusing citizens and nothing is being done about it…this guy and everyone involved should be in jail….no wonder I still don’t like cops…and I’m an old white guy…geez…
