Since most police departments don't even employ minority officers, and the few that do have only a minimal staffing, how accurate is the report?
So your using a fact that most police departments don't employ minorities in the country? Yet you fail to say that most communities in the country have less than 1% minorities. I live in a town, in the liberal state of Massachusetts, and the minority population in my town and the surrounding towns are about 0.7%. In my town of 12 policemen there are 2 minorities and 3 women. Does that mean that as a white man I am being unjustly represented? So much for your argument. Anybody can find a fact that suit their needs but few are willing to do proper research to determine the true facts.
