, it was worse under the previous President.
he'll emphasize one or two hot spots, but they don't stand for the whole.
forgive him. he probably didn't live through the 70s.
and if he did: he's lying if he says it's worse now.

Police Leaders Join Call to Cut Prison Rosters
More than 130 police chiefs, prosecutors and sheriffs — including some of the most prominent law enforcement officials in the country — are adding their clout to the movement to reduce the nation’s incarceration rate.
Asserting that “too many people are behind bars that don’t belong there,” the officials plan to announce on Wednesday that they have formed a group to push for alternatives to arrests, reducing the number of criminal laws and ending mandatory minimum prison sentences.

I figure the lobbyists for the multi-$B Prison Industrial Complex, PIC, will buy enough (Repug) politicians to block any attempts to reduce the prison population.
Repugs will, w/o any doubt, block spending any money on mentally ill, or on rehabbing the substance-abuse addicted, or on education and training in prisons.
Repugs' evangelical faux-Christians love punishing people, just as Christ would do.
And we have seen Repugs reduce spending on K-12 (union-busting, teacher-busting as dictated by ALEC and paid for by the oligarchy), which especially denies opportunities for blacks and browns to get an EQUAL education to whites.

That's what criminals do, shoot, kill police.
And you cheerlead for it and dance on the dead officers' graves.
You Lie
I don't cheerlead for killing police (although some, a lot?, would be better off dead than continue as rapists, murderers, child porn addicts, thieves of citizens' $100Ms)
I slap you rightwingnuts for denigrating BlackLivesMatter with AllLiveMatters, etc and for supporting the police slaughter of blacks and others.

Lamar’s drama is made for TV
Call me cynical, but the Lamar Odom saga smells like a plot — a reality-TV plot. He binges on drugs and hookers, his estranged Kardashian wife rushes to his side, he emerges from his coma, they call off the divorce and live happily ever after. Or until they cash the checks.
Thanks for posting, I've been looking for Andy Rooney takes ever since he died.
Convenient headline edit. Actual article doesn't really support your take, unless you hold the (fundamentally libertarian) view that videotaping cops is an act of war.
of course, FBI is gonna defend all segments of the militarized, murderous police state.

Family members, friends and colleagues of slain Downey police Officer Ricardo "Ricky" Galvez remembered him Monday morning as a humble, hard-working man with an infectious smile.
Galvez was shot to death on Nov. 18 in what officials believe was a botched robbery attempt.
The 29-year-old was attacked while sitting in his car in civilian clothes next to the Downey Police Department. He had just returned from a K-9 training session. Three male suspects, including two teenagers, are facing murder and attempted second-degree robbery charges.

CN fanning hysteria, as usual. Cop killings are still near historic lows.
Still no war on cops. It's still safer to be a cop than ever.
