La Cucaracha by Lalo Alcaraz for March 24, 2015

Not to mention the racist emails from Ferguson cops and officials. The rot goes right to the top in that town, and arguably many others like it. Fortunately, Fort Lauderdale just fired four cops who sent racist texts and made a racist video. But hey, despite the proliferating reports of blatant racism expressed and acted on by cops and government officials around the country—more and more backed up by documentary evidence—it’s still just a few isolated bad apples, right? Right?

Actually agrestic is correct though honestly this is hardly news. Traffic enforcement is nothing but a revenue generating scheme, if it was about “safety” as we are all told, they would be in plain sight.

Where are the Ferguson officers preferences documented? The local population of Ferguson is predominately Black so they are likely to be the main source of traffic ticket revenue. Speed traps are common in rural communities in all states. Not a good thing in any jurisdiction.

There are only 22000 people in Ferguson, mostly black, and over 150 cops, all white. The jail looks like a mansion. What a racket. They should fire them all and partner with neighboring towns for their law enforcement needs. I come from a police family and am ashamed of todays crooked cops.

Yeah, wait til she uses a perfectly good word like “niggardly”.

Did I give you the wrong gender? Sorry :>

Indie——I was trying to agree with your correct use of “black boy” by suggesting another word, niggardly, that routinely is misconstrued as racist.
