They were notorious animals locally, too, known for pulling all kinds of people, including white middle class housewives, out of their cars and beating them at the side of the road. That is kind of extreme. Pulling them out of their cars, eh? Simply outrageous. Long way from Montana, where I've heard that during the "55" national speed limit days, when you got pulled over, the thing to do was hand your license over to the State Trooper....with a $20 bill neatly folded underneath of it. I hear that invariably, the license was examined, then handed back to you, as the Trooper gave you his nicest civil servant smile, then bade you "have a nice day". -G-

<<Not the kind of people who energetically investigate hate crimes when there are no special laws to stimulate the investigation. Ditto for the South of the recent past, where the cops often wore hoods at night. I think that is why there are special hate crime laws. And why the FBI gets called in for those investigations, as I understand it.>> Seems like instead of creating new laws for specified classes of people, we should focus on enforcing existing laws. If cops don't enforce them, aren't they breaking the law? Shouldn't the feds concentrate on keeping cops honest?
