Outside Reading: Always Running #3

One scene in the book was about police brutality, and the whole time I was reading it I was completely disgusted. At first Luis and his friends saw the undercover cops and thought there were just white guys watching mexicans. then they got closer and one of them said, "Come on greasers who wants to go first?" to which one of Luis' friends answer with profanity. then the undercover vops flashed a badge and took advantage of them cuz they felt powerful. Luis and his friends didnt do anyhting to get yelled at and when he tried to move his leg the cop said to him, "Dont fuckin' move. Did I give you permission to move? Dont do anything unless I say, you fuckin' greaser asshole"(66). The white police men used their power in a horrible way and treated these guys like animals. To me that is part of the reason we have inequalities in this world because people with a little power take advantage of the power they have a treat people, who dont deserve to me treated badly, horrible. These people dont deserve that and that could be why they revolt, becasue they are going to be treated like taht anyways so why dont they get in trouble and beat up for a reason instead of just because they were at the beach.
