it is institutional racism and racial hatred on steroids inside their police department.
There should be national outrage over that report. It should be mentioned at the rallies

In a damning report released Wednesday, the Department of Justice details the ways in which the Baltimore Police Department has violated the rights of the people its officers are sworn to protect.
The problems detailed in the 163-page report are broad and deep. But they're specific, too: a "pattern or practice" of discrimination is, of course, made of moments.

I haven't had the TV on today, but I'll bet at most the report is getting a few words on the ticker at the bottom.
