Resignations After Election of Black Mayor Put Missouri Hamlet in Spotlight

[Brian_1349]

Just hours before her swearing in last Tuesday, she got a call from a local television reporter saying that four of Parma’s six police officers had quit. As had the town’s wastewater manager and clerk, who was supposed to administer the oath of office. Ms. Byrd, 40, wondered whether she would even be able to take office. The hamlet’s staff had been whittled to five from 11.

Ongoing opposition of black population and police in the US now reached absolutely new level. It would be easier to say there is only police brutality against Afro-Americans, but I believe the problem is many-sided. What is the reason behind police brutality? Maybe it is day to day communications with blacks that make them so rigid? Is it a subject to systematic racism or anything else?

This woman was on the city council for years. This mass exodus says it's a personality difference rather than a racial difference. The mayor elect went around treating people like crap and blamed all the dislike she caused on racism.

Maybe the good old boys got their lips off the public teet, since townspeople were wondering why it took so many cops to patrol a town of 760 people...They did them a favor actually...

She is a Republican and the Democrats resigned because those Democrats are all racist.

This is the second OP on this issue that conveniently left out that fact.
