To protect and slur; Inside hate groups on Facebook, police officers traffic in CT's, racists memes

15. This is how I imagine over policing

BPD’s legacy of zero tolerance enforcement continues to drive its policing in certain
Baltimore neighborhoods and leads to unconstitutional stops, searches, and arrests. Many BPD
supervisors instruct officers to make frequent stops and arrests—even for minor offenses and with
minimal or no suspicion—without sufficient consideration of whether this enforcement strategy
promotes public safety and community trust or conforms to constitutional standards. These
instructions, coupled with minimal supervision and accountability for misconduct, lead to
constitutional violations.
• Stops. BPD officers recorded over 300,000 pedestrian stops from January 2010–May
2015, and the true number of BPD’s stops during this period is likely far higher due to
under-reporting. These stops are concentrated in predominantly African-American
neighborhoods and often lack reasonable suspicion.
