Mass. Residents love to tout how progressive we are but no one ever talks about the justice system.

I grew up in a small town on the Northshore. There is some serious wealth here in certain neighborhoods. I know of two incidents where the police absolutely beat the sh*t out of someone. In one incident they charged the individual with assault on an officer afterwards to cover their tracks. Never made the news or entered public discussion. Unfortunately incidents happen like this everyday in our larger communities. The assault victims are usually of color and low income. They do not have the resources to retaliate against the blue.

The only public outrage is when Mass. State Troopers were dumb enough to try and cheat the state out of tax dollars. Then accountability matters.
