Look at the comments made by police.com members after a story about asian american Jason Yang.
Jason was running from police after a fight outside a nightclub and jumped to his death from a downtown Minneapolis freeway overpass, police said.
Once again policelink.com members, many of them police officers, make hateful and caustic comments about jason and call him names.

However look at the comments by the cops on policelink.com after a story about a dog that fell 80 feet off a cliff. A deputy risked his life to save the dog.

Lots of sympathetic comments for the dog….Go figure http://policelink.monster.com/news/articles/14749

Robocop33 is the profile name of a policelink.com member that makes the following comments in reference to an article on the website entitled
'White Ex-transit Officer’s Sentence Sparks Protest'
It is a story about the people in Oakland who are protesting the ridiculous 2 year sentence Mehersle recieved for killing Oscar Grant.

"These bastards, (sorry PL but that is what they are), would not be satisfied unless he was given the death penalty! This Officer should never have been charged, much less tried and convicted. It was a tragic accident that never would have happened if the POST that was shot had simply submitted to arrest, or better yet, had not been involved in the illegal activity in the first place. This has already destroyed the life of a fine young man who put his a$ on the line to help the very people that convicted him. FOR SHAME! I say declare Marshal Law and stop this immediately!”

What should you expect from the police department anyway? Many of these racist thugs withe badges would have shot a helpless non threat
as Oscar Grant to death themselves! America simply because you elect a person as President whom is half person of colour does not mean we have arrived at an equal footing for justice for all. In my humble opinion this day shall never happen for the bitter bile of race hatred is engrained in every cell of a fetid corpse that is completely incorrigible!
