Common sense black people: Better cops. Not defund the police.
Ask the actual black people who live in the city and need decent policing.
Not all of us live in nice suburbs.

There are good cops out there. Just rare. Really, really, really rare.

MAGA ‘Merica looks at this and will casually and confidently respond that 94% of the criminals in D.C. are black.
They are wholly incapable of believing that innocent black people are being victimized by sadistic police. It’s what their parents were taught and believed, what their grandparents were taught and believed, what their great grandparents were taught and believed . . . and it what they’ll teach to their children.
I’ve encountered friendly police officers who do their job properly and I’ve dealt with LAPD all my life. Police officers aren’t a monolith, however the institution as a whole is in need of reform because there are too many who abuse their authority.

as a white man i don’t want to interact with police ever. don’t want to be around someone who can legally shoot me dead just because they feel like it.

70% of that has to be by the Park Police.
That is a huge percentage. That’s just crazy
