Rarely, the majority of officers know what they're doing and they uphold the law. Just like how not all blacks are thugs, not all officers are racist killers. To say otherwise is a double standard but I digress. The majority of police shootings happen in dangerous areas with a lot of crime so it's understandable that a lot of them are jumpy although they must be punished for what they did. But do not take your anger out on the many good men and women who keep us safe.

Great and eyecatching poster. I can understand that many countries have a history where the police were only servants of the State/political party rather than the law or the citizenry but it isn't universal.
We in Ireland had Europe's first unarmed police force the Gardaà Siochana (Peace Guards), this was to distinguish them from their predecessors the Royal Irish Constabulary who were definitely political animals and who would call on and command the army to help them in their work.
During the 1913 Lockout they were known for attacking & killing strikers and this resulted in the founding of the Irish Citizens Army so that workers could protect themselves from the police and the factory owners hired thugs, they also took part in our national revolution(just put some old photo's of these guys up)
Most small villages and towns here have a Gardaà and they are definitely looked upon as being servants of the public rather than someone to fear.
I especially liked your "We are not the enemy" poster, it was very original.
