On a day to day basis, many Americans see some kind of new information happening around the USA involving Police Brutality. Presently multiple police departments has at least one of there police officers on sabbatical leave until there pending case is dismissed. A variety of young Americans are scared to walk down the street alone, for they feel unsafe around cops that are suppose to be keeping the streets safe from criminals. In this editorial i will be proving that police around the USA abuse their powers in numerous situations that don't need it, thus as a community we need to find a way to stop this from continuing.
Based on the article "Want to be An Ally in the Fight Against Racism? Two teens show How It's done, evidence shows that in this situation Police Officers abuse their power. At a pool party in McKinney,Texas is an 'example that, that fight is by no mean over' A police officer decided that restoring order required him to pull to his gun on unarmed nonviolent teens wearing bathing suits. Perhaps the teens could have been getting loud with the cop, but regardless the cop had no right to pull out his gun at unarmed teens.
A similar instance occurred in Philadelphia. According to the article "Tyree Carrol Beating Video Sparks Internal Investigation by Philadelphia Police" a twenty-two year old man (Tyree) was caught driving the wrong way down a one way street on his bike when he was stopped by the police. According to Police Carroll was found to have 5.3g of crack cocaine on him but footage of his arrest speaks otherwise on how the police handled the situation. In the footage of Tyree and the multiple Police officers you can hear one of them threatening to use a taser on Carroll even though Carroll was already on the ground blocking the punches coming at him from all the other Police officers while yelling out for his grandmother. Regardless of Carroll's possession of drugs the Police officers should not have abuse Carroll the way they did especially, when he was already on the ground when they was beating on him.
However police around the USA use their power to help those they feel need protection from those that are affecting the community. According to the article "The Police were created to control working class and poor people not 'serve and protect' by Sam Mitani" In a most recent discussion of the recent police killings of unarmed black men, there is an underlying assumption that the police are supposed to protect and serve the population. That is, after all, what they were created to do. This liberal way of viewing the problem rests on a misunderstanding of the origins of the police and what they were created to do.
In the meantime all as a community in order to get justice for what is going on, for all the blood shed of 635 citizens since January 1st 2015, in order to resolve this problem. We should speak out with unity, not protests against the problem but have one voice speak for everyone just like Martin Luther King did in '63'. The solution should be based on one voice speaking out for everyone using opinions and suggestions from everyone.
In conclusion, Police officers around the USA victimize American citizens in multiple situations that don't involve them using their weapons.In particular of this problem police officers should stop and think before taking actions, especially when it comes to minors. Attention to all victims parents my voice speaks on behalf of your fallen loved ones this needs to be stop.
