The goal of Obama and the Left is to eventually nationalize the police to eliminate any local control.
Will Obama’s New Police Strategy Lead To A Nationalized Police Force?

national police forceThis week, it was announced that President Obama will be forming a task force to investigate police practices and the relationship that the general population has with police.
Members of the task force will include prior police officers, lawyers, teachers, social workers and other government employees. This in itself shows that the findings of this report will be heavily biased, but some predict that the final outcome of the investigation could be a nationwide centralized police force.
When the government gets involved in an issue like this, even when it is their fault, they will always use the situation to their advantage and attempt to steer the conversion of solutions in a direction which suits them.
In the case of the recent police brutality debate, this has already started to happen. Just last week Al Sharpton wrote a column suggesting that a nationalized police force would be a viable solution to the current problem of police misconduct. These statements echo comments that he has made in public and during demonstrations, although his presence has been largely rejected by protesters.
Sharpton wrote in his column that:
“We need federal intervention without delay. Congress must immediately start hearings to deal with laws that will change the jurisdiction threshold for federal cases and policing. The executive branch has addressed this most pressing issue, and now it’s time the legislative branch do the same. When local prosecutors fail to conduct a fair grand-jury investigation at the state level, as happened in Ferguson and Staten Island recently, the threshold is so high for the federal government to be able to take over the case. That must change…. And in order for federal authorities to step in, we must reform current laws.”

I think the situation has gotten to the point where we NEED a nationalized police force, but we don't want to alarm anyone about this new change, so the new national police force should be secret.
We could call it the "Secret State Police", but that would translate somewhat awkwardly into Austrian, or German...
