Where are the Good Police? Are there any good police? Police should protect all not just white

The idea that it is a few bad cops that are killing black people is an old, outdated and false statement. I know black cops are involved in killing black people. I know white cops are involved in killing black people. The problem is that if you are black you are dying in the custody or vicinity of police. Protect and serve seems to be for whites only. Has it changed since segregation when blacks could be lynched, killed by whites at any time. The police let this happen. Has this really changed? The list keeps getting longer and longer of black people dying in the hands of police. Dontre Hamilton shot 14 times (disturbing the police, had mental illness) Eric Garner (selling illegal cigarettes), John Crawford (Walmart shopper holding b-b gun), Michael Brown (jay walking, shoplifting?, pot use), Ezell Ford (mentally ill, unarmed), Dante Parker (killed by repeated taser), Tanisha Anderson (mental ill, unarmed, smashed head on concrete while apprehending), AKai Gurley (walking girlfriend home, unarmed), Tamir Rice (12 year playing in park, play gun), Rumain Brisbon (shot as police thought pill bottle was weapon), Jerame Reid (getting out of car), Tony Robinson (disrupting traffic, assault officer),Phillip White (erratic behavior), Eric Harris (73 year old sherrif thought used taser but used gun), Walter Scott (running from police), Freddie Gray (trying to leave police, killed in custody), Sandra Bland (suicide in custody?). None of these people deserved to die. None deserved this treatment. These are the known deaths that is in the public view. There can be others. Then there is cases in New Mexico police shooting at black mother and her car with children in car, the Texas 15 year old being man handled by police. The list continues. A White killers of 9 people is treated well and even gets a Burger King meal. The Colorado Theater killer was treated respectfully. Whites consistently yell at cops, threaten cops, have weapons including guns and they are treated with respect. The police might put to the ground but whites are not killed by choking or tased to death or shot 14 times. I have friends and family members that have been arrested on drugs, alcohol and were belligerent, threatening but never were mistreated. Police protect and serve white people. Some of these criminals do not deserve this kind treatment but they get it. Where are the good police, that protect both black and white? Where are the police stopping this kill black people behavior? Where are the police intervening? Where are the police saying that this is wrong? Where are the police calling out their own? I don't see them. I see some police on the news giving comments, but actual police on the streets, stopping these events? No. Police are standing by and letting blacks die. They are letting blacks be mistreated. Until I see police officers intervening and making a change, all of the police are the same. The police are not there to protect blacks or Hispanics. The police are not good. Police only serving whites does not serve the public. Black lives matter. Brown lives matter. All lives matter. Police need to protect and serve all people.
