Unleash RICO and Patriot Act on Crooked, Racist US Police Departments

Police Departments like Ferguson, MO, and Baltimore, MD, have been documented as using a pattern of racial profiling, false arrest, and trumped-up charges to fill city coffers with fines from economically marginalized populations. Harsh and arbitrary abuse can be seen as creating a "chilling effect" among these populations, keeping them silent and stigmatized in regard to their oppression, and to support systemic cover-ups of the crimes. It would be a simple matter to present these facts in court as proof of organized crime utilizing terrorism on American citizens to extract wealth from specific ethnic groups. Please use these strong and explicit statutes to combat the structural racism and predation that plagues police departments across the country.

Why is this important?

My state of Ohio is rife with violent crimes and murders of People of Color by the law enforcement officials paid by our taxes. This execrable situation cannot be allowed to continue.
