LAPD's blinding new flashlights too light to beat suspects

"It's kind of sad when one of the main features being touted by the LAPD about its new flashlights is their inability to provide suspects with a good beating, but after that very public 2004 incident in which a motorist took 11 blows from a heavy 'torch,' we guess the new model's light weight is indeed an important selling point."

I'm with you on this, Nadir. But I'm still eager for hard data studies demonstrating just how brutal US cops are, and to what extent their brutality is affected by race.
