The American police subreddit did not want to know that there were a few bad apples in their rank ranks despite the overall good news about the use of lethal force.

Blacks are not shot dead out of proportion but there are more incidents of excessive force which is nonlethal. Racists are cowards. There is excessive force under the colour of authority but they chicken out when there are real consequences and serious investigations.
