None of these are really a matter of government policy (esp. civil matters! What should we do - use mind control to make people conduct themselves in a proper manner?) but rather a mis-use or failure to enact the rules that exist.


Some of these, indeed, are very much governmental policies. Racial profiling, authorized police use of force, and the death penalty just to site a few...



After all, I am a history teacher - I know the warts on our country's face better than most.
