Hi Kathy, Joan and Biill,
The police department sets the standards as to what is or is not
the correct policy for their officers when subduing a felon. It is my
understanding that the behavior of the police in the Rodney King arrest
fell within those policy guidelines.
As for the "gorillas in the mist" comment, this was not meant for
public scrutiny . They didn't intend for it to be taken seriously and if
you want them to change then yiou better change human nature.
In my Anthropology course, we were taught that all human beings are
critical of people different from themselves (even geographically). It
is called SCAPEGOATING and ALL humans do it, according to field studies.
