I guess this “community” would rather not have fugitives arrested. Ok.
I would characterize the community as harboring.
Not black ones...
So now we have another justified police shooting but because of the victim’s identity results in another riot. Just saying, if Obama had handled Ferguson & Cambridge differently by being the cooler head adult LEADER in the room maybe we would actually be further instead of backwards in race relations
How true. How many normal communities would tolerate a known 1st degree murderer in their midst before they would cooperate with the police to get him behind bars?
Those communities are popping up all over the place. They are trying to establish no go zones like in Europe.
“I guess this community would rather not have fugitives arrested.”
You’re right. But, this won’t change no matter what the police do because they will always distrust police and look upon them as enemies and a greater personal threat to them than the criminals. Hiring more black police, community outreach, public meetings doesn’t seem to matter. A very tough crackdown might seem to be in order, but believe me it will backfire big time and anti-police attitudes will explode.
