Last time I checked, the cops worked for us, not the other way around. If the community has a problem with the way they are doing their jobs, they need to listen.
Or they can do the jobs themselves. Fat chance of that happening.
Do you think just because a handful of lowlifes protest in the street, that means every black person is behind them? Of course not. The media focuses on them only and never ventures out to find out what other people in the community think about police actions.
Allowing people to tell trained police officers how to do their job makes about as much sense as the citizens telling their professional football team how to play the game.
Just so you know, there are millions of black people behind the demand for reform of American police departments .. and if think its just "lowlifes" in the streets and behind those demands. then you really don't know as much about black people as you think you do. To suggest that the black community doesn't have serious problems with how we are treated by police is just ridiculous .. and that measure is not judged solely by how many people attend a protest. There is much you don't know about protest.
Irrespective of whatever you think about it, serious change to policing, including citizen oversight review, removing grand juries, and prosecution of rogue officers is coming. The fact that the in-coming president is not only talking about it, but actively and openly supporting it demonstrates the weight the issue holds on the national stage .. AND, no element is more responsible for the weight it holds both nationally and internationally then BLM. It doesn't matter what you think of them .. you don't count. That's not to suggest that white people don't count, of course they do. Just you and all your right-wing comrades. Y'all (eb) don't count. :0)
Trump has lost .. President Clinton needing to remake herself .. will move to enact tougher policing because she needs energized black voters to get re-elected .. Obama to the Supreme Court.
You lose .. again.
