    Interesting read, I'm glad he fought them and won. Not for him, but for everybody who faces police discrimination and brutality every day and don't have the ability to speak up about it. It's not going to fix the situation, but its a small victory.

    Yes, good find. I’d forgotten about this. It’s gone on for so long, some people condemn the protests and forget this racism/oppression has been going on before they were born no matter how old they are.

    The evil legal system has deeper levels than you realize. There are as many lawyers as police. After you jump through the hoop of police, you encounter robotic right-wing lawyers, motivated to steal your money. I'd be a couple of million dollars richer if not for lawyers smelling money to be stolen. The evil legal system destroys the middle class, too.
