Black cops feel pain of Floyd's death, duty to their uniform

https://apnews.com/c33525fc78ad95b39098f720688d2991

Richards, president of the NYPD Guardians Association, a fraternal organization, said she was horrified by the video that captured Floyd’s arrest and final moments. She struggled to understand what could possibly have warranted such “brute force.” The National Black Police Association was blunt in its assessment of Floyd’s death and how law enforcement has historically treated black citizens.

Since police killings gave rise to the Black Lives Matter movement, police departments have sought to better diversify their ranks. But minorities remain underrepresented in many agencies. For example, of the 36,000-plus officers in the New York Police Department, 17,000 are white, while 5,500 are black.In 1965, sheriff’s deputies O’Neal Moore and David Creed Rogers were ambushed in Varnado, Louisiana, while investigating a brush fire. Moore was killed, and Rogers was blinded in his right eye.

Some have sought to bridge the divide between demonstrators and fellow officers. In Florida, Fort Lauderdale officer Krystle Smith was lauded after a video went viral of her chasing and reprimanding a fellow officer after he pushed a protester to the ground who was already kneeling.

We will never kneel to anyone, except god. Stand up

The issue is not just about the black lives matter, but the fact that ethnic communities all around the globe matter to all human lives, because racism in every corner of the planet in a modernised form drives a well-designed institutionalised system.

CliffBruntAP You stated that Blacks are under represented in the New York police with 5500 out of 36,000 officers. That is over 15% when the black population is just 13%. Better to stick with sports or take a math course.

Humanity duty

zcrgrl_Resist Keeping the peace, doesn't give them the right to beat on unarmed civilians, many times 3 or 4 cops at a time. All of America is seeing their Gestapo type behavior...a behavior that some appear to be reveling in.

rweingarten Black cops are oppressed even in uniform or in civilian clothes. White police have killed/oppressed black cops, in civilian clothes even when they identify themselves as cops. We’re all in this fight together. No us against them. Eradicate white supremacy/racism from within.

Mutual respect is an actual blessing.

dark skin people are racist too.

Yeaahh...the obvious.

“MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” Because TRUMP screwed it all up! He will be voted out! Dump the TURD on the THIRD! Keep your eyes on the prize!

The evils and ignorance of four men don't/ shouldn't come down on an entire force.

I don't think this can get any more nauseating.

There's movie called good cop bad cop

Then they are in the best position to learn something and make a change within their departments. I wish them safety and that they'll lead the charge to change their own departments.

Feeling the 'pain' while doing absolutely nothing to combat corruption, abuse of power, excessive force and curbside capital punishment, is not good enough.

There's an easy solution. Don't beat/gas peaceful protesters....PROTECT THEM!!!! And if a fellow officer feels like getting frisky....STOP THEM!!!! This isn't rocket science!!!

STOP POSTING THIS SHIT!

AidanRGallagher It's a shame that we still continue to discriminate against such good people. Blacklivesmatter

Imagine how it feels knowing that you MAY potentially have to fire upon your family (cousins, etc...) some day and have to tolerate the ignorance of your fellow colleagues who see your skin color in a negative tone. That HAS TO BE PAINFUL!

Who are these people and what authority do they have?

Uncle Tom’s

Weighing up all their pay too 😲😹😂🤣🤫

Any police officers obligation is to the people they are paid to serve and protect not the uniform.

YOU'RE 'OBLIGATION' is to the 'UNITED STATES CONSITUTION', not some Kleen Klown Klothes. Your UNIFORM is just a identifier, a marker, just an ID for distinction. Plain Klown Klothes Kops still are OBLIGATED to the CONSTITUTION. BRAIN WASHED & IT SHOWS. SMH!

Good cop arrest bad cop.....The End.

Better to be a part of the solution. Hang in there so you can make things better.

When have they spoken up before this? When have THEY not US brought attention to this issue? How many of their White blue avatars did they talk to about the issue? Let’s start there. Because in my book, FUCK THEM

the police should never ever be allowed to tell anyone to stop filming,,, they are public servants . This needs changed asap. Imagine how many crimes we don't know about because it wasn't filmed because a officer told them to stop recording it

Constitution, Liberty & American ideals above all else... including allegiance to corrupt leaders or any particular uniform.

Good. Now how about looters apologising 4 destroying and burning properties too. Let's get the balance back

What does being black have to do with George Floyd's death?

Police officers if your job has the highest of suicidal rate sometime is wrong

Do the right thing. Uphold the law regardless and don't allow other officers make bad decisions.

This picture touched my heart.

They hate all police officers ( in case you haven’t noticed the ones they have killed). This officer, like any who feels unable to do their job properly, should resign. This seems more like the fakenews trying to divide the cops.

THEN THEY SHOULD STOP ASSAULTING PEACEFUL PROTESTERS

quit your job

No Kneeling! Our leader should put this into law!

You dont get on your knees. You stand with them. do not bow down to any protester. WalkABlock but do not get on your knees. This pisses the country off, it is not repsectful it is disgraceful.

starting to question your integrity

They may be in the best position of all to try to create a long term solution.

Poll: 40% Of Likely Black Voters Approve Of President Trump OANN

77-year-old retired St. Louis police captain David Dorn was shot dead by marauders when he tried to force them to stop robbing a local pawnshop. Will he also be buried in a golden coffin or just a felon?

Your obligation is to the American people.

And yet they are still fine with being part of police forces that murder and brutalize neighborhoods all ober the country. I hope they find out that they are also police and quit. copaganda

They can, and should, quit. Anything less are empty words.
