I appreciate the incredible work police do when they are needed in emergencies. As a person living in Brooklyn for much of the past few years, I have had to learn more about the ways police can be prone and even 'mistrained' or stray from their training to do harm.
One of the most serious cases in recent years which spurred the Black Lives Matter Movement and for the public to consider is the way Eric Garner was possibly profiled (by whom and for what purpose has yet to be clarified.)
Supposedly he has sold 10K cigarettes illegally yet he only had 100 on him at the time he was being arrested
