Bernie Sanders tells it like it is.

This is a response to this news about Bland's case:

A grand jury decided that neither sheriff's officials nor jailers committed a crime in the treatment of a black woman who died in a Texas county jail last summer, but it has not yet determined whether the state trooper who arrested her should face charges, a prosecutor said. 

Bernie's right. This would NEVER have happened to a white woman.

    I'm not so sure it would never happen to a white woman. Too many cops are just too out of control, drunk on power, flush with weapons, and immune from any repercussions of their actions, for anyone to be sure of that. But African-Americans definitely have more to fear from these state-sanctioned public-payrolled thugs.

    It's taken Bernie Sanders a very, very long time to speak out about police brutality against African Americans. This statement and other recent statements by him on the issue should have been part of his rhetoric over a year ago. But I guess "better late than never."

      Almost twice as many white people killed by police every year than black people... not to mention every other race/skin color killed by police also that are not black. So sorry, facts and figures are real, bullshit liberal myth, is just that, fiction.

    Bernie's a hundred percent right. I used to drive a BMW as did a friend of mine who happens to be black. Guess which one got stopped for driving while black, and asked questions I've never had to answer, and wouldn't if they did. Is it paid for or leased? Bet your boyfriend bought it for you, etc etc etc. To justify the stop, she was issued "safety check" tickets. When I drove to her house, I never once got questioned, stopped, nor harassed. And I'm just citing my own experience of engrained racism . This has got to stop, we deserve cops that protect and serve regardless of race, creed and color.
