You could probably say that a nation that didn’t recognise its indigenous population as human beings until 1967 probably deserves to be in the same category as well.......
Damond was murdered by a Somalian immigrant who had been fast-tracked into the police force under a diversity scheme. In his two years as a police officer he had three formal complaints against him.
In 2015, two psychiatrists and other training officers raised concerns over his fitness for duty.
Two months before the shooting he pointed a gun at the head of a motorist he had pulled over for a minor traffic violation.
It cost the City Of Minneapolis $20 million to settle the subsequent lawsuit.
