Ferguson protesters were right

2015-03-04 00:17:06.924814+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

RT Lisa Bloom ‏@LisaBloom:

To everyone who criticized the Ferguson protestors: they were right, you were wrong. http://www.nytimes.com/2015/03...excessive-force-in-ferguson.html

If you don't want to spend an NYT click, just note that Ferguson officials put racist comments in email, and that black motorists were twice as likely to be searched as whites, but less likely to have contraband.

Edit: Washington Post has the Department of Justice report on the Ferguson Missouri Police Department.
