As a liberal who works with an extremely effective police department and local public safety system, with a low crime rate compared to neighboring jurisdictions and an even lower recidivism rate, I disagree. We need much better trained police who understand community policing. It's about relationship-building with the community and community leaders. Pro-actively preventing crime by addressing its causes, and working with the community (the ultimate stakeholders here) to solve problems. Going through the neighborhood like bullies with billy clubs does nothing but cause more trouble.

Actually its liberalsm that has proven itself an utter disaster time and time again, seems the people have realized that. Don't believe me? Check the polls.

Try polling how popular liberal programs like Social Security and Medicare are sometime.

And how popular is the 16 trillion dollar debt and 40 trillion in unfounded liabilities…??

Its a joint problem bequeathed to us by both the GOP and Dems alike, but you know… your mistake is in assuming the is conservative.

I bet the next thing you will be calling for is a radical quota for the Ferguson police department.

Just try to cut defense spending and the right squeals.

Defending our country is in the Constitution. Kind of hard to defend without DOD.

Oh right, cutting defense equals abolishing the entire DoD. Real winner logic there. Continue to squeal away.

DOD is the only federal dept that actually gets cut. IE less money than the year before and still does the job with less

It proves that only the conservatives can withstand cutting the budget and liberals are responsible for the debt.

They don't need racial quotas. Ferguson doesn't pay enough to attract black police officers. The cops who work here come from way outside the city and the inner suburbs and they work for cheap. For example, U City has lots of black cops, but they pay more.
