LAPD shot a protester in the head with rubber bullets and refused to call an ambulance for her as she lay there bleeding and concussed; another protester was trampled and concussed by mounted police; countless other protestors were beat over the head savagely with batons... and this is only what was on video.
NYpd and lapd are probably the most corrupt out there. LAPD has actual gang affiliations, some with white supremcesists.
Rage against the machine lyrics are factually based.
Lots of police departments started as slaver patrols, Union busters, and right wing militia.
Portland's police, for example, were originally a KKK militia.
Great time to also mention that Oregon was founded as a white supremacist state.
