Books on the Topic
Balko, Radley. __Rise of the Warrior Cop: The Militarization of America's Police Forces.__ 2014, page 239-307 (Berry Level 3, Stack 219) This gives strong empiric warrants/links about how police anticipate protests to be violent so they show up "militarized" - specifically page 297.

McGary, Howard. __Race and Social Justice__. Malden, MA: Blackwell, 1999. Print. page 165-180 (Berry, Level SA, Stack 34) This book has an entire chapter looking at the racial justice aspects of police discretion and discrimination. On page 167, an interesting potential framework idea of "comparative justice" is offered.
