How the General Social Survey asks about Americans apos approval of the police striking citizens Star Tribune
Dont think our society is screwed yet? Read this. A simple survey asking....is there ANY situation you can imagine where a police officer would be justified in striking a man?
Not shooting....just hitting him.
33% said NO! That their imagination can think of a single scenario where a cop would be just in punching someone. By race...58% of blacks said NO! That under NO circumstances can a cop hit a man. Whites said 70% yes.
Fist fights? When asked...if a cop was being assaulted by punches....would a cop.be justified in PUNCHING back?
26% of blacks/hispanics SAID NO!! 1/4 of them said if a cop is being attacked by punches....he would NOT be justified in punching back!!!
Holy crap. I have no words. No way id be an American cop today. No way. God bless them all.
