Last week the President called for police to soften up uniforms to improve public relations. In response the Department of Justice is getting ready to field test new uniforms in friendly colors. Various shades of Purple are being tested as it seems to be universally thought of as a color of friendship.

Purple (or any other color) soon becomes the “color of oppression” as blue already has.
Color of uniform has nothing to do with the image some ethnic groups maintain in their minds. Authority is still the enemy, though, one asks, who could possibly be their friends?
When oppression is so solidly identified with authority, it is a little hard to shift the narrative.

Make sure the cops stand out in a crowd so the bastards who want to shoot at cops will know who their targets are.
Stupid Idea, from Liberals no doubt.

Perhaps Uniforms could reflect the “racial” and “other*” makup of the populace..cimminity by community”?
White uniforms in primarily white neighborhoods...and black uniforms in uniforms black neighborhoods and nieghborhoods like san francrisco’s castro district *...could use Rainbow Unifroms* ??
oh... that leaves out tan neighborhoods and ‘yellow” neighborhoods/S oh well

Purple is the color of valor, Purple Heart. Have some respect, on this day if not every day.
