Garland says they found the MPD often used excessive force when not necessary.

DOJ: MPD was 6 times more likely to use force against African Americans and Native Americans than whites.

Not specifically outside of they are going to send someone negotiate with the city and police department about making changes. They plan to continue to review more findings, interview more communities, and watch how police are trained. More info continues to come out as Im watching.

Ill update as more info comes out.

Nothing will change in response to this because the police were filling their intended role (social control) and accurately believe they were simply doing their jobs. The people with social/economic and thus political power were either unaffected by this brutality or actively cheer it on. And if anyone attempted to fundamentally change anything, they'd be viciously and likely successfully attacked by an organized coalition of the people who don't want anything to change, which is far more people than you might think.

Until that underlying reality is changed, until there is a different relationship between black people and white people or poor people and middle class and above people, this will continue to happen everywhere.

  • Requiring supervisors to review the use of force and identify violations of policy or law.
  • Developing policies appropriate for dealing with people with mental health problems.
  • Analyzing data about police actions for racial disparities dealing with stops, searches, arrests and use of force, and reducing unjustified disparities.

Maybe a federal takeover of their department is needed for awhile.

No matter what they claim they will do to fix this, I don't believe it. They will do the bare minimum and only when someone is looking. They aren't going to change and they don't want to change

To the surprise of no one. They could have asked the black residents of Minneapolis and saved some time.

Fuck CNN but yes it's good to have a report factually state there is systemic racism and now they have to actively make changes.
