人兽性交

WASHINGTON听鈥� Southern Poverty Law Center Action Fund President and Chief Executive Office Margaret Huang released the following statement听regarding听迟辞诲补测鈥檚听厂别苍补迟别听Judiciary Committee Hearing on Police Use of Force and Community Relations:听

听

鈥淟et鈥檚 make one thing clear: the killings听of听Rayshard听Brooks, George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tony McDade, Sean Reed, Yassin Mohamed,听Ahmaud听Arbery听and too many others听are not the result of individual 'bad cops.'听These murders are the result of entrenched racism and a system that was designed to enforce white supremacy.听

听

鈥淚n order to move to a more just system, we need to realize that previous attempts at reforms have failed.听Reforms have never听addressed听the fundamental problem that听policing听is rooted in slave patrols created in the eighteenth-century and intended to control people of color.听

听

鈥淭he American public is demanding change and听Congress听must听take action to听deliver that now.听The 人兽性交 calls for听legislation to implement meaningful, transformative changes to our police system 鈥攃hanges that will protect communities of color, end police brutality, and entrench the principles of fairness and equality. This moment requires nothing less.鈥�听

The 人兽性交 Action Fund has joined the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights and over 400 civil rights organizations that outlined several key provisions that must be part of any Congressional action, many of which were included in the recently introduced Justice in Policing Act.听听

听

Some of the provisions outlined, include:听

• Reduce the use of excess force by creating a federal standard that permits the use of force only when necessary and only after all other reasonable options have been听exhausted;听听
• Require the use of de-escalation techniques; require officers to intervene if they see another officer using excessive听force;听听Prohibit the use of force as a punitive measure or means of retaliation against individuals who verbally confront officers or against individuals who only pose a danger to themselves; and require all officers to accurately report any use of听force;听
• Deem the use of chokeholds, neck holds, and any maneuver that restricts the flow of blood or oxygen to the brain to be a听federal civil rights听violation;听听听
• Uphold and enforce the principle of equal treatment under the law by prohibiting racial profiling and requiring robust data collection as a condition of federal听funding;听
• End programs, such as the U.S. Department of Defense 1033 Excess Property Program, that provides for transfers of military equipment to the police and enact the Stop Militarizing Law Enforcement听Act;听听听
• Prohibit the use of no-knock warrants, such as the one that caused Breonna Taylor鈥檚听death;听Develop a national, comprehensive public database to track the names of officers who have had their licenses revoked or been terminated, as well as complaints against officers.听听
