You act as if this happened in a vacuum.

Sure the cops did an absolute bonehead, unforgivable thing.
It was in response to a kid who had been trained to act that way..
Will you acknowledge that?
I can’t acknowledge that because I don’t know it to be true. And neither do you. Do you have some special insight into the dynamics of this particular family, or are you making a blanket statement based on her skin tone?
