Many in law enforcement use social media to nab criminals, so you’d think that they’d know to be careful when posting on websites like Facebook, because everyone is watching. Cops across the country have naively been using social media sites to rant about their jobs and put a spotlight on their racial biases. The Marshall Project published a collection of Facebook posts by police officers that expose their prejudices. The roundup was inspired by remarks made by Cynthia Whitlatch, a White female Seattle police officer who was caught racial profiling on a dashboard camera. Whitlatch then took to Facebook to go on a rant about African Americans. “If you believe that Blacks are NOT accusing white America for their problems then you are missing the point of the riots in Ferguson and the chronic Black racism that far exceeds any white racism in this country,” she posted. “I am tired of Black peoples [sic] paranoia that white people are out to get them.
