left this note with the miami dade police department under officer commendations. [View all]

I would like to commend the wonderful work your officers did in restraining the 14 yr old negro who looked at you sideways.Its good to know that you wont let that sort of thing go unpunished.It really should be the law that these young future felons be locked up as soon as they leave the womb,( maybe slap their mother for being a lose woman for good measure.) Keep, up the fine work, Killing maiming and basically frightening children ,before you know it there wont be anyone left to protect and serve and we will all be able to shoot and kill or imprison any brown person we want without worrying about stand our ground laws.With fine officers like this on duty we can all rest assured that florida is a safe and secure place to live ,unless of coarse you are black and carrying a bag of skittles or a puppy. Bravo
