Florida Police Department Used Black Mug Shots For Target Practice

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/B7bZPRSCcAEdC2T.jpg hotlinked National Guard Sgt. Valerie Deant and her fellow soldiers went last month to a firing range in Medley, Fla. What they saw there made them angry. Not only had North Miami Beach Police snipers who had used the range before them used mug shots of six African-American men as targets, but one of the men pictured was Deant's brother. The mug shots were riddled with bullets. "I was like, 'Why is my brother being used for target practice?' " Deant told NBC6, which first reported this story on Thursday. The mug shot of Woody Deant, her brother, was taken 15 years earlier. She said it had bullet holes in the forehead and an eye. Woody Deant had been arrested in connection with a drag race in 2000 that left two people dead; he spent four years in prison. "I'm not even living that life according to how they portrayed me as," Woody Deant told the NBC6. "I'm a father. I'm a husband. I'm a career man. I work 9 to 5." North Miami Beach Police Chief J. Scott Dennis acknowledged that his officers, who had selected the targets, could have used better judgment. But he denied racial profiling was at play, noting that the sniper team included minority officers. He said his department also uses pictures of whites and Hispanics for target practice. But, he said: "Our policies were not violated. There is no discipline forthcoming for the individuals who were involved with this."

they should use full color mug shots for target practice, not black ones.

Whoever shot that top left one should be fired. Both shots only grazed the man.

When you practice shooting, shouldn't the target resemble the real thing?

Someone needs just to be branded as a perp, and that is all it takes. |

Some good accurate headshots. :thumbsup
Those people should have reason to be concerned. |
Yes, to please BM, they should cherry pick some various mugshots instead of just grabbing whatever. I bet there would have been no "news" if those 6 were white.

I only care about the justification part, not arbitrarily. For example in Mexico, they kill systematically people who are threat to the druglords, does the systematic behaviour make it that much better? Was nazies systematic murdering of jews somehow OK, as it was systematic and "regular" Germans were somewhat safe, unless they were picked up for some other reason (like being suspicious about the victory)? |

Saddest part of the whole story is this:

I transcended the shitty cards I was dealt as a kid by looking beyond how others saw me. By all accounts a throw away pre teen like me in group homes & foster care should have been in jail, dead, or a serial killer. I always told myself that some day I would be the father to a son, that I never had. I chose to look deep inside myself, formulate my future, and project my intentions on anyone I met, and any opportunity that came my way. Granted, that did not involve porn, BUT, I say to you: It's in your power to shift your focus to creating an abundant future for yourself. Don't waste your energy on those who don't deserve it. Projecting, and absorbing, negative energy from damaged people will not bring you up to where you are meant to be. :2 cents: Continually pointing out racism, and pointing at racists, does not change the fact that they both exist. Lesson learned. Move forward and make posts that point to the future you deserve. |
