Police brutality

Police brutality is described as " the intentional use of excessive force, usually physical, but potentially also in the form of verbal attacks and psychological intimidation, by a police officer". Police brutality exists all over the globe and is a form of police misconduct. It is sad in this day of age, that the men and women who are supposed to "protect and serve the people", sometimes treat us like animals. The power gets to them, and they think they can do what ever they want. People have been killed, and seriously injured because of police brutality. I believe it is important that everyone is aware of police brutality, because it is another problem that plagues this world. When we all wake up and realize the corruption of the oppressive system, we can rise. The people must stand up for their rights and beliefs. When will the world wake up and realize "aren't we tired of violence, hate and war"? In the words of Bob Marley, "One love". I put a song into this post. The song is by Sabac Red and Immortal Technique. The title of the track is "Fight until the end" and it exposes the truth and horrors of police brutality. RIP to all the victims of police brutality.
