Preface

In this assignment I want to research police brutality and why it occurs. I want to know
why policemen treat certain people wrongly knowing that they are held at a higher standard than
regular citizens of the United States of America. I am going as far as not only telling true stories
and facts about police brutality, but also defining the underlying issues that are the basis of the
wrong doings towards suspects. I will be defining terms such as prejudice, racism, and
stereotype. I will be showing that police brutality does not just happen from a white police
officer abusing the opposite race, but also the crime can be on the same race. Police brutality is
not just white on black crime, but it is a crime that happens to everyone. Police are humans just
as the rest of the world which means that they have their own thoughts and judgements upon
people, this does not make it right to use this during the time that one is at work. Prejudices and
racism leads to bad situations that can easily be avoided. I feel as though police brutality is just
as wrong as any other crimes just as God has said it in the Bible about sins. God says that all sins
are equal and none of them outweigh each other. Crimes are sins, they are wrong things that a
person is not supposed to do.
