This is not an unfair characterization, especially if you expand the scope of "state-sanctioned violence" against Black communities beyond the matter of policing to encompass the criminal justice system as a whole. The whole ideology of "tough on crime", notably favored and pushed by the current POTUS and VPOTUS alike, has been among their most dismal failures in living memory. Sad!
