Boehner on Baltimore Cops: ‘If These Charges Are True, It’s Outrageous


"Invest in Education and Job Training Programs" ~ These seems to be on top of every politician to do list, to address the problem in cities like Baltimore. But they all seem to have forgotten the "lost generation" of minorities (particularly black men) who, haven entered the "system" now have no way out.

They are deprived access to meaningful re-entry into society. Many who have the right education still have difficulty accessing jobs at the same level as their peers.

Education and Job training yes. Drug law reform yes, discrimination against felons who have paid their "debt to society" must stop, and what about all the thousands who have been incarcerated for non-violent crimes ~ expunge their records and give them a real second chance.

And yes, police reform laws must not be just be about body cams. The laws must protect citizens as much as it protects officers who risk their lives. Policing is about protection, not harassment, and  the laws must ensure that for the sake of all.
