It would be considered institutional discrimination if the institution of the Los Angeles Police department were shown to be tolerant of or supportive of this kind of conduct by police officers.

In fact, an independent commission that studied the Los Angeles Police Department after the publicized beating of Rodney King found that the LAPD had been an institution tolerant of excessive force and overt racism by its officers, and proposed that Daryl Gates, the police chief at the time, should step down from his leadership post.  He did not immediately do so, but did resign in 1992.  After his resignation, a second commission (The Webster Commission, named after its chairman), also leveled heavy criticism at the LAPD and Gates in particular.

Monk’s Mound in Cahokia is an enormous earthwork very near to the Mississippi River. What do archaeologists believe it was used
Alex Ar [27]
Monks Mound is the largest prehistoric structure in the Americas and the largest pyramid north of Mesoamerica. It covers 16 acres with 4 platforms with ceremonial structure at the top. This makes it approximately the same size at its base as the Great Pyramid of Giza (13.1 acres / 5.3 hectares). Its base circumference is bigger than the Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacan. As a platform mound, the earthwork supported a wooden structure on the summit. It’s believed to have been a temple or chief’s residence. Since Mississippian society revolved around the mound network, archaeologists believe that the central, and largest mound would have belonged to a societal leader.
