Republicans smirk, chuckle, and mutter "git that n***er." Most of them anyway.

(19,038 posts)The FBI released a re[port years ago detailing this, and they've been investigating it ever since.
And across the country there are incidences of cops getting caught we KKK or Neo-Nazi propaganda, tattoos, and posters. AS well as thousands of cops being pictured with the White Power hand sign. It's rampant and there is no effort to purge law enforcement of these racists.
Just last year here in West Michigan a police officer was found with KKK posters in his home when it was reported after a potential buyer went to his open house. There are thousands or maybe even tens of thousands of Neo Nazis working in law enforcement. And this is above and beyond the more normal latent racism of law enforcement.

I lived in Kenosha for 12 years, my husband worked for AMC/Chrysler. Both my children were born there at a hospital overlooking Lake Michigan. Its a rough city....
Reports from friends who still live there claim several large fires, a church and a car lot, were torched as firemen stood and watched.
Kenosha is smack dab between Milwaukee and Chicago. I can guarantee, tonight will be devastating....
