mayor: white
police chief: white
city council: five white, one black
school board: seven white
police force: 50 white officers, 3 black officers
rest of town population: 70% black
white cop shoots unarmed black kid to death in front of witnesses, yet FPD doesn't bother interviewing anyone. community gets mad and holds rallies, FPD flips into military mode complete with snipers and grenades and tanks. two well-known reporters are arrested in a mcdonald's for no reason. one cop filmed screaming "come on you fucking animals, bring it".
lol if anyone still thinks a) we don't live in a police state or b) racism is dead and gone or c) it's safe to be anything other than white/male in this country
