From Time Magazine:

Recently in New York City, an unarmed black man was shot to death by police officers who thought he might have a weapon. Why do you think incidents like this keep happening?

The police are addicted to a contagious need to expel rounds of deadly bullets. They cannot control themselves because they see their fellow companions do it. They don’t carry the same standard they would in more affluent communities. Race only plays a role because there are more blacks and Hispanics in poor communities.

It doesn’t happen in affluent neighborhoods because:

1. Most affluent neighborhoods don’t follow the ghetto mentality of “stop snitching” and actually respect the police.
2. Most affluent neighborhoods don’t shoot at cops for giggles.
3. Most affluent neighborhoods aren’t packed with gun-toting drug-dealing teens.
4. Most affluent neighborhoods don’t have gang problems.
5. Most affluent neighborhoods don’t have pieces of garbage like Charlie Rangel, Al Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson pushing their “f**** the police” agenda.
6. Most affluent neighborhoods aren’t loaded with kids that worship thug pieces of garbage like Biggie and Tupac.
7. Most affluent neighborhoods aren’t filled with single mothers who can’t control their kids.
8. Most affluent neighborhoods aren’t in need of constant police presences just to exist.

That’s just a list for starters.

Charlie Rangel is a race-baiting and polarizing piece of garbage; plain and simple.
