Police And Discrimination
The police and the law are here to protect us from social evil and also safeguard the common mans interest. The police are accessible by everyone irrespective of their caste, creed, race, color, gender and disability. Discrimination is not an option for the legal force. However, several times one feels that even the police are discriminating and still follow racial discrimination in the United States. |

The African Americans are more susceptible to harsh treatment by the police. Race and gender plays a very important role in how justice is meted out to the citizens of America. In cities where the crime rate is high, the police invariably consider the blacks the main reason of it. A white man is a less of a suspect than compared to a black man.
This attitude of the police is not something new but has been prevalent ever since the civil rights movement started in the United States. The African Americans have always got a step-fatherly treatment by the cops ever since. The crime rate is high even because of Hispanics, Mexicans and the white Americans there are several criminals, drug dealers, murderers in all categories of people. But somehow the racial discrimination in America is prevalent in this one area of the society. Even judicial cases can swing the other way of a black man is being tried by white judges or vice versa. Clearly the society in the legal enforcement has reached a divide where the black cops are more understanding towards their own community, while the white cops have something against the black people.
