An extremely vivid and sobering read. Thank you for sharing.

Good lord that was depressing. Well written, but dark.

Great read. Though, this is an old white man thing to say:

When I was a kid, police officers were our friends. When I was a reporter, they were men who surfed and played in bands when they were younger. They were not out to ruin your day, or your life. They enforced the law with a sound sense of context.

I wonder how his experience would differ if he was a minority.
