The demilitarization of the Police in the U.S.

What we are seeing now after Travon Martin, Ferguson and now New York is not only a new phase for Black human rights but also for the rights of all Americans as this reverberates around the world.

This is the beginning of an obvious push back of the American people unbelieving at how little rights not only black people have in reality but also all people in the U.S.

How did it get this way?

It came primarily from 9-11 and a militarization of the police.

It came from the paranoia after 9-11 and the deaths of 2000 or more people there that day including police, firemen and workers and visitors in the twin towers.

What we are presently seeing is Americans taking back their rights.

How long will this go on?

It could be years and years of demonstrations because of what we have seen in Florida, now Missouri and Now New York City.
