My heart 💜 aches when I see the victims’ families speak out💜💜💜💜💜
Does it ache when they reach their hands out for millions of dollars and cry in front of cameras now when before they didn’t even lift a finger yet alone care about their relative on the streets addicted to drugs?
@Shane Peterson money doesn’t ease the pain. Do NOT reply to my comment.
I suspect that a database identifying “bad apples” will only be used by corrupt officials as a recruitment tool.
Step 1 pay officers 25k a year more than they’re currently being paid
Step 2 Reinstate TIME DISTANCE and COVER training…
Step 3 eliminate ticket/arrest quotas.
Step 4 have reviews and prosecution against officers done by prosecutors that aren’t a coworker of the officers in question…
Step 5 financially reward officers that successfully de-escalate dangerous situations without causing loss of life…. Compound the rewards with each instance and pay a bonus monthly….. Incentivse de-escalation and reward proper conduct.
Step 6 end the purchase and use of military vehicles for police function…
Spend the funds on step 1 and step 5
Another person talking about training reforms. Yeah right. If you hire a racist, you can train them until the cows come home and they are still going to be a racist. If you hire a person of low intelligence to be a rocket scientist then you might end up with some cute little toys. It absolutely starts with the hiring process. You don’t hire a politician to do open heart surgery anymore than you hire a heart surgeon to work on your car.
And the house of Jacob shall be a fire, and the house of Joseph a flame, and the house of Esau for stubble, and they shall kindle in them, and devour them; and there shall not be any remaining of the house of Esau; for the Lord hath spoken it.
The amount of surprise experienced because of this outcome is in line with “absolutely none”
But they passed that bill for Asian Americans (good), with the quickness even though police reform is for EVERYBODY not just Black People but since it would help Black folk no one gets any police reform at all. Amerikkka.
interesting words from obama, last summer his statement was “shut up and dribble.” still halting progress from this side of the whitehouse
Obama Did Not Change Anything For Blacks!!!!
Well yes to everything these three spoke , this is what I have been attempting to tell my city leaders you all articulated it very well.
Crown me king up underneath the Pope and England’s Queen! Namean? I’m only asking! There’s nothing more right than asking! Friends!
To whom much then is given much is required! I’ll be needing a one trillion dollar free funding!
One Trillion is a drop in a bucket for the betterment reformation!
I’ll only be a world wide public announcement away! If everyone everywhere would settle your petty disagreements! And could see eye to eye with me!
Pay the American people a one time brilliant pay out of one trillion! For all would be legal fire arms owners! The peace shall be sweet!
Continue on as you have! Everything is prophecy!

There’s nothing more lucrative than investing in crypto, more Especially in this pandemic
They all work for the rich in the government, so we see no change or responsibility from them.
In order to be a black hero, one has to be a felon and to die in a confrontation with “the white people.”
