text: Ferguson Issues:
  1) The Ferguson report stated that over 90% of the arrests made in that town were of blacks, which make up about 67% of the population. That stat isn't indicative of a crime problem; it means that whites are arrested at a much lower rate.  
  2) Between 2012 and 2014, there were 14 people whose single offense listed in the report was "resisting arrest". All 14 were black.
  3) Use of racial epithets by police towards blacks.
  4) E-mails among police and court staff that stereotype racial minorities as criminals....including jokes about abortions as a method for crime control. Distasteful in a run of the mill office setting....flat out wrong and disgusting to be done by city and police personnel.
  5) Black male accused of being a pedophile for sitting in his car after playing basketball because there were kids at the park.....then cited for giving a false name (used Mike instead of Michael when asked his name).  Man was ordered out of his car and patted down with no cause.
