They should erect some statues as a reminder so they don't forget

Still going with that false narrative I see

Wasn't American policing originated in at least some significant part by fugitive slave patrols?


Partly yes...

But people are going to get upset that CK is linking that to modern police forces.

For example, the St. Louis police were founded to protect residents from Native Americans in that frontier city, and many southern police departments began as slave patrols.

In 1704, the colony of Carolina developed the nation's first slave patrol. Slave patrols helped to maintain the economic order and to assist the wealthy landowners in recovering and punishing slaves.

Congress also passed fugitive Slave Laws, laws allowing the detention and return of escaped slaves, in 1793 and 1850.

The literature clearly establishes that a legally sanctioned law enforcement system existed in America before the Civil War for the express purpose of controlling the slave population and protecting the interests of slave owners.

The similarities between the slave patrols and modern American policing are too salient to dismiss or ignore. Hence, the slave patrol should be considered a forerunner of modern American law enforcement.”

And the first 10 post are a parade of dumbasses that think the NFL gives a shite about his politics. The dude any produce as a QB, if he could he would be signed. This site should know that because of Matt Flynn.

Hes done more than that. Now compare that to the women beaters, kid beaters, rapists, and other criminals in the league. Yall will idolize someone like Big Ben who rapes women. I dont think yall know what a piece of shite is. Yall really dont care about most shite as long as hes helping your team win or helping your fantasy team.

It amazes me that the same people who say don't blame all Muslims for the actions of a few are the same ones who want to paint all police officers as racist.

If only racial injustice went along with him, we may never have to deal with the likes of him... But as long as white cops walk free from blatant murder there'll be more CP's. I can only hope
