I never trust testimony from the underclass of society who claim what you are saying.
The crowd acted like savages.
I did not see white folk riot when that young P.O. was murdered in his patrol car a few months ago. Then the locals put up a memorial to the killer.There appears to be a great deal of functional insanity among blacks.
Would you support an initiative by the people, from the people, to remove any politician from office who does not vote to de-militarize the Police??
This move would be non-partisan.
What exactly do you think that term means? does that term include giving police body armor, or semi-automatic rifles? Or does it apply when they get armored personnel carriers?

Good points and another poster mentioned that as well. This was a broad statement to gauge interest.
I'll go into more depth after researching exactly what type of equipment they have, but I would like to say that I don't just think they need less weapons, I think they need a culture change. I think the "militarization" is part weaponry and defense and part mentality when interacting with their fellow citizens.
I do think we need a lot of work as far as policy goes to not only make citizens safer, but Police, but the way that large protest are being handled in this country should frighten people. When you arrest and attack the press your essentially saying we don't want people seeing what we're doing.
There's an unbalance of power between the government and the people imo.

Your problem is you can't see that full control happens in steps.
Disarming citizens is the first step, then the only people with guns would be the military and police. By supporting Obama's anti-gun legislation you already fell for and support the first step in militarizing.

Don't turn this into a partisan thread please. This isn't about blame. It's just about solutions and debate. I don't want to get into the politics of it because its us making a demand from them. Not the other way around.
"Mass Firing Initiatives"
I think they should catch on. Initiatives where there's an overwhelming majority support but Politicians refuse change legislation because of special interest. Obviously every issue is a case by case issue but the partisanship is doing nothing but keeping that power structure in place.
And that power structure needs to crumble so that the real leaders can emerge.
