The Real Hypocrites In West Memphis, Arkansas

The police chief of West Memphis, Arkansas claims that the community that reside on the south side of town are nothing but criminals and trouble makers. He also claims that the crime rate went up 100% since the Dante Farrow case. Before the Dante Farrow case the crime rate in Paudert eyes and the court system of West Memphis, Arkansas goes up at a certain time of year. For the past twenty years or so, arrest grow to a higher demand during income tax season. Between January and May the local police usually go on a tirade and harass the citizens of West Memphis on the south side of town. You can guess on how many colored people live on that side of town. Mostly African Americans are stopped in this process. Just like the Jim Crow laws in the past the city act as if they need our money to stand on its legs. With the arrest that the police make the court house and the judge make a killing on fines. For an example, channel 5 reported that West Memphis police officers made over 70 arrest. If the reporters would have investigated most of those arrest they would have found out that the arrest was not legit. They would have also noticed that with those amount of arrest the fines would make a staggering figure for the court house and the city. This shows discrimination at its worst form.
