44. It's no accident that there aren't as many as there should be

When that point was raised in MO after Ferguson, someone pointed out that it wasn't an option in most cases because that many had been arrested and were not eligible.

With just 21,000 residents, Ferguson issued a staggering 32,975 arrest warrants for at least 16,000 different people. Not just parking tickets, Ferguson averaged 567 non-traffic related court cases per 1,000 residents—far and away the highest of any town in the state and more than twice as much as the town with the second highest average. To put that into perspective, the city of St. Louis had 80 non-traffic court cases per 1,000 residents and that's actually above the state average for Missouri.

White supremacy and racial profiling drive the condition of having white cops policing people of color. It turned out that the STL police departments were exceptionally racist and white cops requested to be in majority black cities. The Jennings police dept. was so racist it was disbanded.

Missouri is not unique in having police forces that are dominated by a culture of white supremacy. It's happening all over the US and (as Will Smith pointed out) the only thing new is that it is being filmed. The injustice is minimized and all of the solutions offered by white people seem to put the onus on people of color to solve the problem of their own aggression and bigotry.

OF COURSE people are angry and sick of it.
