Paramilitary Training of Our Police Results in Stories Like These

by Chris Kennedy

What has happened to our friendly neighborhood police officer?  You know, the guy who was there to “protect and serve.”

Now, it seems our country is full of black uniformed paramilitary “officers”.  You see, the problem with providing paramilitary training to our police departments is that by definition, they are being trained to combat an enemy.  That enemy, is you.

Let’s look at just some of the recent stories coming out of police departments around the country:

Cop allegedly pulled gun on pregnant woman over too many grocery items

Cops Shoots Unarmed Woman Motorist To Death For Rolling Up Her Car Window

Me, APD, and ‘Babysitting While White,’ Part Deux

Courts and Dept of Justice Agree: Videotaping Police is OK
