Yes, you
read that right:
With more and more unsolved murder cases being hampered by the street-level code of silence that can intimidate entire communities, police seem to have a hard enough time when it comes to gathering crucial information. That's why they were so perturbed when they learned a group of law students have been handing out a pamphlet in the troubled Jane and Finch area called "Survival Tactics: Dealing With Police."
Oh no, it wouldn't do for kids in an area where police tend to hassle kids a lot to actually
know what their rights are, now, would it? Of course, the part they focused on was this:
One section reads; "It's no secret, however, that police often cross the line in both obvious (Rodney King) and hidden ways (racial profiling.)"
No, it's no secret, but I imagine the police would like it to be.
