And then guess what you wind up with on the police force in short order. You wind up with lower standards, less background fails due to criminal record, and a substandard police force that is subject to being infiltrated by local gang elements.

What they will get, is a police force which is OWNED by the gangs, with a "citizen review board" that does what the gangs tell them to.

I hear ya.

I know people mean well. I understand where they are coming from. It just seems to me there is a disconnect somewhere along the line.

They watch the Brown fiasco in Ferguson, how the community games the situation so the officer looks like the criminal and the guy that assaulted him is the victim.

They watch how the minority winds up directing how things will be run. And then they surmise that of course, a citizen review commission is the just what the doctor ordered.

For heaven’s sake, was nothing learned by the observation of what just took place?

The police are now the people under the gun AGAIN. The local community that produced Brown, why they’re such great examples of common decency that they blame the officers, and are now nearing a complete takeover of the police department.

And “Conservatives” at least some of them, are willing to buy into this crap sandwich. Simply amazing...
