(8,103 posts)you know, the riots, the fires, and all of the out of control people. Then, the Orange Turd came off his throne and told the Governors to "dominate" or else. The next day, they started using gas.
Look, I agree that the original cop bad boys need to be prosecuted. We all agree that this has happened before, and this has got to stop. But, nothing will be accomplished with Trump in office.
And, I'm not hearing any graduated incentive. I am hearing, "We want to cut your budget." That won't work. And, I am not sure how Federal funding would affect the state's sovereign powers.
But, I think we should reach underneath with some national program and get more of some type of educational scenario and a logical, simple "comply or else" consequence.
Federal money is used all the time to force people to conform to standards. So, some type of revised standard with training involved, together with ADDED money, not money to take away that they don't have anyway, and lower level education where we teach our children tolerance, understanding, and respect for each other might be wrapped up in some kind of Federal program.
And, for sure vetting the cops is without saying.
