My Feelings about Police Brutality

I have been very outspoken against the militarization of the police and the more aggressive police training of late however most must agree that the vast majority of police officers are good people with a very difficult job.
You cannot paint all police with the same brush and regarding police brutality, it depends on the case. In the Ferguson case, the "victim" made a lot of bad decisions that ended with him being shot and the grand jury (with african american members) found insufficient evidence to indict the police officer. On the other hand, the case in NY where 3 police tackled that guy for selling cigarettes and choking him to death was clear cut brutality and the officer who choked him SHOULD be charged.
Everyone needs to remember that this holiday season if someone is breaking into your home or is following you and you are scared, who are you going to call ??? That's right these same maligned police will come and help you---we should never forget that.
