Angry, jittery, paranoid, racist, murderous, asshole cops.

They're really starting to scare the fuck out of me. I can't imagine how horrible the militarization of cops in America must be for people of color.

Racism has always been rampant in the United States but it's starting to feel like it has taken a seriously HUGE turn for the worst; especially as it applies to cops with a superiority complex, no moral compass and a racist chip on their shoulders...
