Grab a black man, whose been accused of 'something' by an anonymous source,

pin him down, put a pistol next to his head and shoot him dead before checking out the situation or talking to the "suspect."

This is the current state of affairs in far too many police stations across the country. If you are Black in America, your constitutional rights don't exit. Yes, Madame Secretary, something is definitely, very, very wrong.
