Joshua HollandCT state troopers entered up to 60K fake tickets, issued to imaginary white people, to game a database designed to ferret out racial profiling. (And didn't enter real tickets issued to Black people.) One in 4 troopers were doing it. And it seems like nobody is being punished for this crime.
A Tattered Scrapbook@JoshuaHolland You know when people talk about systemic racism, and “centrists” get uncomfortable and defensive…?
This, right here, is the system, being racist, using more racism to try to hide the initial racism, and, caught, going unpunished by the racist system.
Connecticut. Not Florida. Democrat governor. Democrat senators.
How do you fix this?

@ricardoharvin @Tattered I agree! Just commenting on their oh-so-pure motives.
