Make them safer. Make us safer. Community policing - knowing the neighborhood. More training, more help, more accountability. Police are expected to wear so many hats: socialogist, psychologist, etc: Give them what they need. Give them training & community support. I love this message from our President.

"There are bad police, just like there are bad lawyers, bad doctors, bad presidents, etc" paraphrased - just a good message. Go Dark Brandon.

After reading a few posts here on DU I googled the speech and went to a few major news sites and see nothing. What am I missing?
