This means that they have a have a broad freedom to make a decision about how to act on the given situation. For this reason some police officer deliberately use their wide power of discretion and their authority to perform acts of misconduct. In this article it is generally agreed that discrimination based on racial or ethnic origin is morally wrong and a violation of the principle of impartiality. In fact impartiality principles requires that those who are equal be treated equally based on similarities, and that race not be a relevant consideration in the assessment. However, in May, District Attorney George Gascon appointed a three-judge body of distinguished jurists to look into bias in the department following a series of misconduct scandals, the most troubling being a group of police officers who were caught sending racist text messages.

The article is based on discrimination and wants to get rid of the whole idea of it. The news writer did a lot of research due to her knowing information from the 1800's, she also did a report on an event that happened on Donald Trump's Tuesday news conferences. This article is supposed to be for all humans old enough to see and recognize discrimination within their own community or their city. Reading this article may help with pointing out what discrimination really is. Lexington's article is different from Chapman's because of his focus being on violence instead of discrimination. This article illuminates the idea of discrimination because it talks about being against equality and inclusion.

In the article, “Occupy Chicago 3 years later; activists’ passion still burns” is not bias and is a credible site because she has two statements from two different professors from different universities, she gives the location and what happened and also when Occupy started. Soon after Occupy Chicago was organized three years ago, at least 2,000 of its members assembled in Grant Park during a noisy protest. More than a hundred were arrested.
