Sue the bastards at every turn. Maybe, eventually, this will be the answer.

Quote:Black ex-cop says he and his son were beaten by racist colleagues who mistook him for fleeing suspect
Quote:The lawsuit, which is seeking $1 million in damages, claims that Owens and his son were treated as criminals by racist police officers.
“They were assaulted, arrested, handcuffed and placed in the rear of police cars due to the color of their skin and because they are African-Americans,” the suit claims. “One officer remarked that all he saw was a big black guy.”
According to the suit, some of the officers involved in the pursuit later denied they were present.
Providence police acknowledged during the department’s investigation that officers mistreated Owens and his son due to their race, the suit claims.
