The review boards will never find wrongdoing from a black officer.

Easy solution...Cops need to stop arresting people in these areas.
Crime stats go down (on paper anyway) and cops don't get harassed.

This is the proper way to prevent abuse. Give the people that are policed a voice in what is "acceptable" and "unacceptable" in their neighborhoods.
Are those not called “laws”?

More specifically, the voice they have is that of their elected officials. So yeah. They already have a voice.

This goes back to the 1970s. Along with other cliches like 'Black Preachers will march for peace in the community to stop the violence.'
It's an annual event in Shreveport. After a century or two they might try something different.

Then they will never find wrongdoing. Black officers are about all BPD has form the top down.

Acceptable - Following the Law
Unacceptable - Breaking the law

Black mayor.
Predominantly black city council.
Black police chief.
Black sheriff as well.
Pretty sure the DA is black too.
