Their list of offenses: Passing gun control laws, despite the fact that the state made it illegal for cities/counties to pass new gun control laws about 20 years ago. City police cuffing and detaining people for open carrying, despite the fact that this has also been perfectly legal. Clearly racist behavior of officers, with regards to how they would treat white gun carriers versus black gun carriers.
