None of this was happening (or at least was not in news) when we were spreading freedoms in Iraq, Afghan lands... why this racial drama escalating lately?

From democrat to autocrat: NATO ally turns back on group’s ideals (http://blogs.reuters.com/great-debate/2014/12/22/from-democrat-to-autocrat-nato-ally-turns-back-on-groups-ideals/)
(Reuters) - From the dingy donut shops of Manhattan to the cloistered police watering holes in Brooklyn, a number of black NYPD officers say they have experienced the same racial profiling that cost Eric Garner his life.
Garner, a 43-year-old black man suspected of illegally peddling loose cigarettes, died in July after a white officer put him in a chokehold. His death, and that of an unarmed black teenager in Ferguson, Missouri, has sparked a slew of nationwide protests against police tactics. On Saturday, those tensions escalated after a black gunman, who wrote of avenging the black deaths on social media, shot dead two New York policemen.
