I would agree with Koffla but I would go one step further. Some police officers in the US behave more and more like paramilitary forces looking to control their local populations through intimidation. They display all the arrogance of an occupying force when challenged, or even when not, and they seem to regard the black and minority populations as 'the enemy' to be subjugated at all times. This is the attitude which leads them to respond to black people with excessive (even lethal) force thus making the situation progressively worse.

Breaking this cycle requires massive retraining of police officers and a NATIONAL approach to the training of law enforcement in general.
Systematic racism in the London Metropolitan police force took many years and a massive retraining programme to (almost) eradicate. A programme which was only started after the death of Stephen Lawrence.
Unfortunately I do not hold out much hope that this is even possible in the US.

Everybody throw logic out the window , until there's nothing left inside the house.. I'm angry ab\out it.. you guys are angry about it, but all you want to do is hurt people.
I seems to always get caught in the middle. freedom or execution.. I hear it and i think, WTF are you people thinking? The hypocrisy of Republicans and the hypocrisy of Democrats.. all depends on which side fence you live on... I can't take it anymore.

Any police officer who was there and didn't stop it.... Needs to be fired. Any police office who partook of any injurious action, need to be sent to prison.. There is at least one I know of. The firings have happened.. if the jail term happens .. then justic will be served for this killing.

You want to make an "example" of those cops?.. of how to meek out justice..like that going to solve the real problem and not make it worse..WTF are you people thinking? Justice is Justice.. it doesn't blow with the wind.

I heartily disagree with you about this Sandy.....you're letting your emotions over-rule your thinking. You say the killing must stop and then you advocate for more killing.......

I agree with Jiminy on this......more killing is not going to solve anything....never does.

Hang him until the pee runs down his boots for the public to see.

Note ----when a person is being hung ------(vertebrae separating) they automatically urinate.--------When I watched the video I thought it was already running underneath the car past the victims head. Quite a distance to travel on level ground in a short time.
I also thought would the killer notice that & think it is time to let up? But he didn't. Perhaps it was my imagination.

    Quoting  :

AN EYE FOR AN EYE...An injustice for an injustice.. So EVERYBODY gets to end up blind and Justified.

You know i hate Trump..you know he sicken my stomach...But I think about it different than most people.
I honestly can't think of a more EVIL person on this planet.

Many of you don't think that in world of murders, r*pist, ethnic cleansing, Dictators, Power abusers, and inhumane people.. how is it possible to name Donald J Trump the most evil person?

People do evil things, virtually no one is immune. Who am I to pass judgment on the evil things people do. Who am to judge the evil things Donald J Trump does?

That's how we differ.. I don't do that.
It's not the evil things people do.. It's the evil things people create. NO ONE is immune from Donald J Trump. Donald J Trump is the epitome of evil, in his creation of it in others. Doesn't matter his support and his opposition...Donald J Trump creates evil where ever he goes. Never once have I seen him...not do it.
He does it to Me, he does it to You, and he does it to his supporters.

How do solve it.....Well we are up against a wall of evil...The outcome is not certain. WE do what we have to do.... that is NOT EVIL..

All we can do is get rid of......One bad President, one bad cop, one racist, one r*pist, one liar, and one criminal... AT A TIME.
