Obviously not. I have read about stop and frisk and racial targeting. It never came up that at least a third of all males are arrested once. More puzzling, this doesn’t seem to be limited to some states.
It’s surreal. Why are people arrested? Are the arrests justified?
I can understand if the majority condones a police state to surpress the minorities. But if everybody gets arrested why is there not a successful movement for change? Do Americans know that it is different elsewhere?
Why are people arrested? So many reasons. Cops are stupid and racist covers a good bit. Now more than anytime since slavery.
Americans do not know that it is different. I saw something once that the vast majority of Americans die within 50 miles of where they were born. I’m of the opinion that travel cures ignorance, but most people just don’t really do it. First off it can be expensive, and secondly going on a cruise doesn’t count, I don’t care if you got off the boat in Jamaica for three hours and bought some trash in a confined area. Sorry, but you haven’t been to Jamaica.
…you need time off work to travel; that’s a luxury few working-class americans can afford even to visit the next state, let alone the indulgence to travel internationally…
