[QUOTE="SummerMadness, post: 73449564, member: 142216"] I think he is trying to justify why Maplewood (not Middleton) has the highest rate in the state. What he ignores is that Maplewood is not bordering Lower Vailsburg and considering that Newark, South Orange, Irvington and Union do not have similar rates, this argument is completely bunk. If anything, South Orange should have the same rates as Maplewood as they are seen as one community. There is also the fact that the Maplewood police chief was canned because a cover up of an incident of police brutality toward a group of kids. It's an argument from a place of complete ignorance and still ignores the fact that committing a crime does not make police brutality okay. This makes no sense, what are you talking about? Fleeing is not carte blanche for police brutality. Just as you shouldn't be bludgeoning Dylann Roof after he murdered people in church, you should not be beating a person that has fled the scene. Irrelevant. Being polite or impolite does not justify police brutality. And if you're implication is that Maplewood residents are somehow more impolite, you obviously know little about the cities, townships and villages in Essex county. [B][/B] I think your reply shows that you don't know anything about the man in the car crash and why he was kicked, and why this led to the police lying that they were trying to help him. Nonetheless, this very case is a perfect example why police brutality is not and should not be tolerated. Innocent people should not be hurt by the police and if the police do hurt an innocent person, it better not be by reason of the police beating up a person because they're angry. [/QUOTE]
