What is going on with police and policing in America? A man reaches
for his driver’s license at a routine stop in South Carolina, and goes
down in a hail of police bullets. A man picks up a BB gun for sale in a
WalMart and is shot dead by police. A man sells single cigarettes on a
Staten Island corner, dies in a police choke hold. A woman pummeled by
the road in California. Michael Brown, dead in Ferguson. All black?
Yes. Some complications? Sure. Do police feel vulnerable? Yes. But
come on. This hour On Point: what is going on with policing in America? / Tom Ashbrook
