feministingforchange:chuchotant:feministingforchange:read moreThis means the police have literally created a group of captive people. They can pick them off at will to incarcerate and thereby create make them into criminals-the only people allowed to be legally enslaved in this country. Ferguson is a captive and enslaved population and it’s all supposedly legal.Yeah, it’s official: Ferguson = a police state. It’s even scarier if we factor in kids. In the US about 20% of the population is under 15 years of age. Now assuming that there aren’t a bunch of 8 year olds in Ferguson with outstanding arrest warrants (though at this point I’m not sure we can actually make that assumption) that means almost person 15 and older in Ferguson has been criminalized. So if you took 10 adults at random in Ferguson, the police would consider 9 of them fugitives. -- source link
