We were making good progress making sure that police practices weren't tainted by racial bias.  Now we are not.

While I'm not a fan of those types of encounters, I don't believe any of that is racially motivated. When the highest crime areas are minorities, you're going to have more interactions with minorities.

Besides, haven't shown where those investigations have negatively specifically minority communities and how Trump's DoJ (is it really his though?) made it worse. They follow the crime. They're not interested in giving black people a hard time just because.

Did you read the DoJ report about the Ferguson MO police department?

Here's what the conservative blog RedState had to say about it:
"Even if you read only the parts of the Ferguson DOJ report that come directly from the files of the FPD (which is to say, files that would be most favorable to the Department), the report paints an incredibly damning picture of the Ferguson Police Department"

https://www.redstate.com/leon_h_wolf/201...oj-report/

DoJ is no longer trying to find which departments lose sight of their mission like this. The problem didn't go away. We just decided to stop looking for it.
My fellow southpaw Mark Brunell will probably always be my favorite Jaguar.
