Yes, the police get it right 99% of the time. And when they get it wrong there are criminal and civil remedies available. There is nothing to protest.

The failures we identified in our findings – that we heard about from residents and officers alike
The department found that CPD’s pattern or practice of unconstitutional force is largely attributable to deficiencies in its accountability systems and in how it investigates uses of force, responds to allegations of misconduct, trains and supervises officers, and collects and reports data on officer use of force. The department also found that the lack of effective community-oriented policing strategies and insufficient support for officer wellness and safety contributed to the pattern or practice of unconstitutional force.
In addition, the department also identified serious concerns about the prevalence of racially discriminatory conduct by some CPD officers and the degree to which that conduct is tolerated and in some respects caused by deficiencies in CPD’s systems of training, supervision and accountability.
We found that BPD has engaged in a pattern or practice of serious violations of the U.S. Constitution and federal law...The agency also fails to provide officers with the guidance, oversight and resources they need to police safely, constitutionally and effectively.
Ferguson’s law enforcement practices are shaped by the City’s focus on revenue rather
than by public safety needs. This emphasis on revenue has compromised the institutional
character of Ferguson’s police department, contributing to a pattern of unconstitutional policing,
and has also shaped its municipal court, leading to procedures that raise due process concerns
and inflict unnecessary harm on members of the Ferguson community. Further, Ferguson’s
police and municipal court practices both reflect and exacerbate existing racial bias, including
racial stereotypes. Ferguson’s own data establish clear racial disparities that adversely impact
African Americans. The evidence shows that discriminatory intent is part of the reason for these
disparities.
Cops defending themselves is a civil right violation?
What a dumb thing to say
Dumber to believe it

if this was Germany 1939, these players wouldn't be playing anywhere.....they would be arrested or shot.
what is it with the liberals obsession with Nazi Germany?.....I mean if a citizen in China under Mao, the Soviet Union under Stalin , Vietnam, North Korea or Cuba did this the athlete wouldn't play anywhere in the country. They would be shot or sent to prison.
Trump is right. Nobody wants this in a football game.
The NFL is destroying it's corporate brand. It's fascinating to watch them let it happen.
Nobody? Only white supremacists think this is destroying the NFL.
