The Two-Tier Justice System
Republicans have raised this issue, but many of us have been aware of it for a
long time. There are two levels of justice in our country. One thing is for
sure: they should blame themselves. If a Republican candidate sees someone
getting shot in the back while walking away from police, they just do what the
police say. People in their district are told that if they don't follow police
orders, they will be put to death right away without a hearing; because they
didn't follow the police's decrees, they should have been killed.

You will notice that there are more black people than white people in the population. It's not just black individuals that the police are killing. The news often portrays black men and women as the sole victims of police shootings and deaths. The cops are killing people, and they are killing black men and women more than any other race.
There is a thought that the cops are racist. Almost certainly, at least biased.
The concern is further heightened by the fact that this is yet another instance of the two-tier system. Filling out the information is essential. The National Violent Death Reporting System (NVDRS) is a database that police stations must use to keep track of all police violence.
The National
Association of Police Organizations (NAPO) is the police lobbying group. Its
only job is to promote the police's interests in the political process. Ending
police data reporting can achieve this.
