28. "...by the ancestors of those cops ..."

You don't know that, do you? He may be first generation-US-born. He may be a grandson of Hitler Youth. But you don't know if his ancestors brought Africans to be slaves in the US. I know many white people whose parents were 20th century immigrants.

But I certainly get your point about his membership in the white brotherhood as a factor in treating probable descendants of slaves heinously. And those attitudes may not have originated here.

Fired and charged I hope Egnever May 2016 #1
