A fine example of judging a man by the color of their skin and not the content of their character. We can blame democrats for the death of Tyre Nichols.
Let's just call it what it is. Another public sector failure courtesy of the left. Much like what is in the White House right now.

The death of 29-year-old Tyre Nichols, a black man, after his altercation with police during a traffic stop has thrust a discussion of police reform back into the news cycle. The five officers involved, who were also black, were fired and each charged with second-degree murder, aggravated assault, aggravated kidnapping, official misconduct and official oppression. Another narrative, though, ought to be examining how it was that these officers were allowed on the force in the first place. As a report from the New York Post highlighted, that may have to do with relaxed standards.
According to the report, two of the officers, Tadarrius Bean and Demetrius Haley, both joined in August 2020, which was over two years after the department loosened education qualifications to become an officer. Among such loosened requirements included no longer needing an associate's degree or 54 college credit hours to join the force. Officers could also get hired with five years of work experience.
