Police violence doesn't happen in a vacuum. It's a systemic problem rooted in Dr. King's "triple evils" of poverty, racism & militarism.

In this edited portion of a longer interview with The Young Turks’ Cenk Uygur, Crystal describes how today’s urban police forces have come to resemble street gangs, the difference between “us vs. them” urban policing and “customer service” policing that occurs in suburban areas, and wonders when police will start being given awards for challenging corruption in their own departments.

In the chaotic last moments of John Berry’s life, Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies attempted to pull him from his car and shot him with a Taser as a woman screamed at them to stop. Then came the gunfire that sprayed the windshield of his BMW . Minutes later, the 31-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene — the curb just outside his Lakewood home.
