A Remarkable Role of Civil Right Attorneys in Preserving the Citizen’s Human Rights in Los Angeles, CA

...

Human rights are constitutional protections that shield individuals from prejudice, unreasonable force, unlawful arrest, speech repression, and other violations of their freedoms. They are meant to ensure that citizens are treated equally under the law and are protected against illegal government actions. Civil rights and liberties apply to a broad range of problems, including police malfeasance, job discrimination, fair housing, the right to vote, and many others.

Civil rights defend not only our African-American community, but everyone regardless of their creed, religion, nationality, or race who has been mistreated by police violence, false convictions, injustice in the workplace, or in any other field where their rights have been infringed. In this article, we will talk about the protection of human rights and liberties under the U.S. Constitution. Additionally, we will discuss the remarkable role of civil rights attorneys in supporting the victims of police brutality in Los Angeles, CA.

Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution and Civil Rights Violation

Residents, immigrants, and even unlicensed immigrants or foreign visitors, all have civil rights in the United States. The Fourth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution provide humans the right to be free from the deadly force by police departments and officers. When law enforcement officers abuse their power and deprive a citizen of his or her civil liberties, this is known as a civil rights violation.

The Fourteenth Amendment revolutionized the entire framework for policing in two ways. Firstly, it demanded states preserve basic human rights, such as life and personal liberty security. Local cops could not investigate and arrest African-Americans without probable cause. Secondly, it guarantee equal protection of the constitutional laws and demanded equal justice for all people regardless of their race and religion. The demand for an equal justice system and protection for all the people ended the discrimination and unfairness of subjecting one class of people to a standard that does not apply to another caste.
