Surprising New Evidence Shows Bias in Police Use of Force but Not in Shootings:
Rudolph Giuliani Lashes Out at Black Lives Matter:
His comments came as the country grappled with pain, confusion and anger after last week’s two fatal shootings of African-American men by the police and the killing of five police officers in Dallas, the deadliest assault on American law enforcement since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.

William J. Bratton, the New York police commissioner, who appeared on Sunday on multiple shows, was among the many who emphasized unity.
“This is a shared responsibility, trying to bridge these differences that are becoming quite evident through many of these videos,” Mr. Bratton said on ABC’s “This Week.” “We have come a long way; we have come a very long way. And I can speak for New York, but quite clearly events this past week show we have really almost just begun the journey.”

Former top cop: America is ‘sitting on a powder keg’:
The former top cop in Washington and Philadelphia said Sunday that the country is “sitting on a powder keg” amid outcry over a number of fatal police shootings, including two last week that prompted nationwide protests.
And he fears that “some incident” will take place at the national political conventions later this month.
Charles Ramsey, the former D.C. police chief and one-time Philadelphia police commissioner, said on NBC News’ “Meet the Press” that this is a “volatile time” for the nation.
“We are sitting on a powder keg,” he said. “You can call it a powder keg. You can say that we’re handling nitroglycerin, but obviously, when you just look at what’s going on, we’re in a very, very critical point in the history of this country.”
