Police Brutality

Police officers and prison guards are employed to protect citizens from harm. Police officers should use only sufficient force to effectively bring an incident under control. Furthermore, that force should be applied while still protecting the lives of the officers and other civilians. The law protects all citizens, including those accused or convicted of crimes, from violence at the hands of the police.

Excessive force is a common type of police brutality. Police brutality was largely ignored in the past, but recent events where some police officers have inflicted serious harm on an individual have brought the issue back into the public eye. Police brutality is no longer tolerated, and many officers have been convicted of criminal assault charges.

Sadly, most of people who are victims of police brutality did not actually commit a crime and were not even in the process of being arrested when the police assaulted them.
