colleagues, that implies that he expects his colleagues to like
it. So how many more racists are there in the department?

Reform: Officers Who Detained 6-Year-Old At Gunpoint Sued Under
New Law
--- Quote ---
> Colorado police are under fire for holding a Black woman and
four unarmed kids in custody at gunpoint, forcing them to lie
face-down on the ground in a parking lot for two hours after
incorrectly thinking their vehicle was stolen. MSNBC’s Ari
Melber reports on the disturbing case, and interviews the lawyer
for the woman suing the officers, which is only possible under a
brand new law passed in the aftermath of George Floyd’s death.
