Reforms are fine, i personally have had many criticisms of the police for decades now (mainly militarization of police) so i do think they are needed in a way but where i draw the line is if any of this is blamed on systemic racism. That's pandering to the mob in my opinion. Cops need some reforms and black families need reform and need to be re-formed and that has nothing to do with systemic racism.

But i will hold my outrage until he speaks. He rarely lets me down so hope this won't be one of them. lol

I live with a family of police who could see some positives come from different types of training being available for recruits or any officers really that would want to recieve more certs to make them even more diverse. In Chicago we do not have the money or man power to do these things so if they work out a way to fund these things it wouldn't be a bad thing. Also not required just available. POTUS already said we're not DEFUNDING any thing in fact we will increase funds.

Fuck yourself, stupid.

Let me also add that you'd probably be whining like a bitch if they were forcing you to wear a mask over Covid. Cops are good being militarized until they're pointed your way, you prick.

That's just one of the most recent examples. There are many more. I'm not here to convince you either way, i've been seeing the slow creep for a long time and i don't agree with it.

They are rolling MRAPS up to businesses to arrest citizens trying to earn a living.

Then there is Duncan Lemp and the Lexington raid.

Militarization of police is very real and very dangerous. It goes against every facet of what this nation was founded on.
