What is the historical procress behind contemporary American police brutality? When did it start like this...

Post 9/11 cops sometimes literally go out better kitted out than fucking Delta Force, no joke.

Extremely low requirements to join the police, its not uncommon for a robber to serve as an officer. There are aven several murderers and rapists. I dont remember his name but he told 2 girls to get in the car (they trusted him since he was a policeman) and then raped and killed them. (one of them probably survived, iam not realy sure)

the North Hollywood shootout probably caused that actually
It's kind of a big revelation to consider when two guys with AK-47s can beat back and pacify an entire department.

Was he the hapa guy?

Probably since the conception of the state. I am sure there are occurances throughout time of these events occuring. Although, I would have to say that they probably arose more so during the turn of the century with shady government underlings and organized crime trying to be shut down.

also, there is a large perception of modern racial prejudices. as kind have point out. The racial prejudices today, are no where near the scale of say the Irish or the Italians coming over. Or during the rise of the Black Panthers.

After 9/11 the departments went out of their way to hire headfucked military veterans and equip them with military grade weaponry. They're basically behaving like a bunch of soldiers occupying a foreign territory and not like actual cops.

Having to deal with Niggers.

Police Brutality has basically been the norm of law enforcement.
As far back it can trace its roots.
The only exceptions are judical cases in nobility vs noblility, where both will bring a rather large honor guard to whoever is the judge of the case, and then maybe not even respect said court case due low amounts State Monopoly of Force.

What basically happened, is that as states entered Modern Times, and state monopoly became stronger, some paper pusher realized that No Police Brutality gave strong signals to trust the State, which turns out to be effective, so long it doesn't involve turning a blind eye to crime.
That said, enforcement in states with no real violence, is very different from enforcement in states with real violence.
So if you have ghettoes, with crime, you basically need a small military force to even start cleaning up the place, on top of fixing the issues beneath the surface.
US police brutality is basically a meme, where the opposite end is Swedish one

I imagine it's gone on forever. People in a position of authority are always going to make retarded decisions. The reason we hear about it now is because niggers (whos entire culture in America is doing illegal shit and hating the police) are outspoken because white people gave them the ego to talk about it, and we eat it up like candy and believe them.

It started in the 2000s with the killing of Officer Kyle Dinkheller

Genital mutilation lower empathy.
Check psycho history. Americans are just on lower level of psycho development compared to Europe.

American cops have always been more trigger happy then Euro police but the major increase in the militarization of American cops began with Desert Storm and carried on from there, with the U.S. fighting constant wars for Israel and tons of guys coming out of the military and who had been effectively acting as an army of oppression, joined American police depts. and brought that "us vs. them" attitude with them.

Saged and reported

>they have niggers and nigger crime
Nigger crime used to be much worse in the 70s and 80s but the cops weren't this militarized, that only started in the 2000s.

These, preferably hiring vets was a huge mistake. Instead of the traditional beat cops patrolling the neighborhood they lived in and working with the community they became trigger happy, detached lunatics who treat every civilian as a potential threat first.
>inb4 b-but cops were always brutal!
Police brutality in the past meant things like giving some punk a good beating, not emptying three mags into some random dude, his wife and his dog just because he scratched his ass.
Things like nigger crime aren't an excuse either, because that used to be much worse in the past.

if you're referring to the militarization of American police, it dates back to the 80's and 90's. The wave of violence brought on by the crack epidemic saw cops get a bit jumpier, and the "solution" that many police forces developed was incredibly heavy handed tactics that would make a lot of the profiling and biased policing people complain about today look tame. Obviously that alienated the people being affected (read: poor blacks), so the cops ended up feeling more at risk and became more willing to be violent.

You then had the militarization of police that came out of the drug war. The rise of SWAT teams and the glorification of them made every department want to get something like that, and high profile incidents like the North Hollywood shootout through the 90's demonstrated the "need" for cops to have something with more power than just a handgun. Thanks to all these pressures, departments took advantage of programs that sold military surplus to police departments. In 1990, a program was set up to transfer surplus military equipment to police departments, with the intention being to offload things like office supplies and other more benign things, but later in the decade the scope was expanded with a renewed emphasis on the drug war and counterterrorism. So we saw armored vehicles, machineguns, and other military weapons being offloaded to police departments for incredibly cheap, and unsurprisingly they bought it up.

In doing so, these militarizing departments present a less friendly face to the communities they police, which furthers the divide between cop and citizen and makes both feel more alienated. As the cops continue to feel as more a distinct class from "regular" citizens, they end up being more willing to resort to force to resolve conflicts.
