Police killed another unarmed black man

This got to stop, police in America just killed another unarmed black man. His name is Jamar Clark and the police shot and killed him while he was handcuffed. He was killed by the police in Minneapolis Minnesota.

None of the people running for president is running on a platform to pass laws t stop the police from killing unarmed people, so why vote for them, if they are not going to make any effort to stop the police from killing unarmed blacks?

I think we need to enforce the laws we have without bias.

And you're right, no candidate is really addressing this although Hillary did meet with the Black Lives Matter group.

We don't hear about black police killing unarmed white people, it's always white police killing unarmed black people.

That's generally true.

I even heard on the radio, the host made it sound as though running from the police is justification to be shot. If we need a zero-tolerance policy anywhere, it's in these cases.

There are racist cops in most areas. Not all, but a lot. What better job can a racist SOB get. He has a gun and badge.

Yes, but I don't think that's the only problem. I think it also has to do with seeing black folks as dispensable. This too, is an off-shoot of bigotry and/or elitism, seeing oneself as better than the other person for any number of reasons.

Communities can come together, and make a stand against police brutality in their neighborhoods.

In most other jobs, the person in charge is the first to go. I think these police chiefs need to be relieved.
