By Casey Farrington · Tuesday, Aug. 26,2014 1:56 p.m.

Tuesday, Aug. 26,2014 12:15 p.m.

Ferguson, Missouri’s police department has released its report on the Aug. 9th shooting death of teenager Michael Brown, a redacted document that American Civil Liberties Union attorney Tony Rothert says violates Missouri’s Sunshine Law by omitting key information.Brown’s death at the hands of a Ferguson police officer provoked impassioned demonstrations and debates on police brutality and the very nature of policing in the United States, leading many observers to wonder if Americans are now living in a full-fledged police state.But what is a “police state?” The phrase has become an almost commonplace feature of our conversation on police violence and militarization, a convenient way to give voice to growing fears about deteriorating civil liberties.
