Dunno how anyone could argue about the Chicago numbers...
.....From its beginnings, the U.S. developed as a capitalist country, organized to produce profit for those who already have wealth, by exploiting the labor of others. Where there has been a wage labor system rather than slavery, those with wealth have always needed a surplus force of laborers. When there is a high demand for work, members of this reserve army of labor may be hired, but when that demand dries up, they are usually let go.
The existence of this reserve labor force, while necessary for capitalism, creates all kinds of social problems. It directly led, in the 19th century, to the development of an armed police force, charged to protect the property and interests of the wealthy and to deal with all the other social problems created by this system, from homelessness to addiction to murder.
NBC is fully on board with division and class warfare, and police are part of the racist wealthy controlling the poor.
Of course it's no surprise, but looks like they're coming after not just police, but capitalism and our way of life.
Was a good ride while it lasted. We can go down swinging I guess.
