Just another rant …

I question anyone who decides one or two people represent the whole, but when a group of people found out that, their family members, neighbors, co-workers and friends have experienced some form of excessive use of force the need and demand for change happens in forms.  There was a time when i was convinced that only Conservative Politicians wanted more control more swat equipment.   Unfortunately, most Governors or Mayors on both sides of the political aisle think cracking down stricter measures is the only way to handle crime seemingly without any consequences. We all seemed to have forgotten Rodney King’s experience.  Then we all saw heard officers lying to hide the truth and wonder what it will take Politicians legislators to see minorities as they see white people. There are good bad and ugly in all races cultures and communities. Why not address Police use of excessive force why not accept that ALL people want the police to protect & serve NOT to act as social controllers of children and or adult minorities …Why not tase, ask questions or shoot to stop FIRST? The use of excessive force by the police seems to be increasing. We used to believe it was only NRA supporters assuming blacks are a threat more likely than being a victim. Then we saw Black People who were in accidents in hours after 10pm killed for being suspicious…why? They were asking for help! Now its politicians on both sides who want the issue to go away and THAT is new.
