Lawless and Orderless

 


Can it really be SO DIFFICULT to come up with a set of policies that best guarantee the public safety without pride or prejudice? Surely there are level headed, non-controversial even, solutions to the overabundance of people who are "mistakenly" killed by police officers. Obviously it's a dangerous job because it requires dealing with the criminal element. But they seem to be making it far more difficult than it needs to be, routinely perceiving law abiding citizens as threats and promptly turning them into corpses. And far too often than anyone should be comfortable with, those unarmed, law abiding citizens who end up being killed by a cop despite not being a threat to anyone happen to be African American. We can do better. We must do better. The alternative is anarchy. The alternative, eventually, inevitably, is Civil War.













































R.I.P. Adam Toledo. Gone way too soon. A child taken from us for no reason that seems reasonable to me. 

 


Enough is enough. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired. Far too many hashtagged names. Far too many Lives of Color  needlessly lost.
