And that is just part of the first page of charges mentioned above, not one civil rights charge or conviction for a Rodney King type beating or Michael Brown type murder. Just numbers says some police officer has killed or beaten without mercy an unarmed black male usually but not exclusively. Stories abound of merciless beatings by racist police officers, yet when I used the duck duck go search engine and asked for "police officer guilty of" and there is NOTHING about the murders and beatings that black and poor people suffer, unless it's a white Iraqi veteran or something like that that is immediately jumped on by the press. It's ALL about sex solicitation, corruption involving drugs and money, different scams. Very indicative of police priorities when charging for crimes committed by police officers. Trends? As stated by you, more BS obfuscation.
You're not doing well with the muddle you are working at creating, or you knew all the time and just deflecting the truth that one degree that shifts focus from the real problem. Disingenuous. Not something that rates you very high in my book. But then you probably don't worry about being rated high in anything or any ones respect quotient, you're a lawyer.
