"All 50 US states fail to meet global police use of force standards, report finds"
Quote:
Every state in the US fails to comply with international standards on the lethal use of force by law enforcement officers, according to a report by Amnesty International USA, which also says 13 US states fall beneath even lower legal standards enshrined in US constitutional law and that nine states currently have no laws at all to deal with the issue.
Quote:
A Guardian investigation into deaths at the hands of law enforcement officers in the US has so far documented 515 people killed by police this year. The statistics reveal that black people are more than twice as likely as white people to be unarmed during fatal encounters with police, and show that black Americans are killed by police at more than twice the rate as white Americans.
Amnesty identifies nine states – Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Ohio, South Carolina, Virginia, West Virginia, Wisconsin and Wyoming – alongside Washington DC where no law enforcement officer lethal force statutes exist.
Cops in my state can gun you down for looking sideways at them.
AI accused Israel with crimes against humanity, they are worried about our police while ISIS is literally committing crimes against humanity. Yes we need fix our problems in the system but we don't need to bend a knee to AI screw them and the UN.
