Celebrities, Congressional Black Caucus: Let's Nationalize Police

[mad cow]

Prominent celebrities and leaders of the Congressional Black Caucus have endorsed a major nationalization of local police forces with an August 25 letter to President Obama, calling for creation of a federal police “czar” and greater federal controls over law enforcement in the wake of the Ferguson, Missouri, shooting and protests.

“The Administration must appoint a federal Czar,” the letter states, “housed in the U.S. Department of Justice, who is specifically tasked with promoting the professionalization of local law enforcement, monitoring egregious law enforcement activities, and adjudicating suspicious actions of local law enforcement agencies that receive federal funding.”

The letter is signed by Congressional Black Caucus Chairman Marcia Fudge (D-Ohio), and her fellow members Elijah Cummings (D-Md.), Steven Horsford (D-Nev.), John Lewis (D-Ga.), Gwen Moore (D-Wis.), and Barbara Lee (D-Calif.). Also signing on to the letter are the leaders of the ACLU, several labor unions (AFL-CIO and SEIU), Sex and the City actress Cynthia Nixon, and several dozen others.

Many people see a problem but their solutions to it may be different from what you had in mind.

Useful idiots.

So, the solution is to set things up so if there's a problem with your local police department, you have to convince some odd twenty million voters that those problems are more important than abortion, gay marriage and all their police departments combined. Otherwise nothing gets fixed.

Yeah, that'll work...

National Police controlled by sociopaths and psychotics that sell anyone out to keep their aristocratic thrones in "Rome's District of Columbia".

The black community has not realized that they were already sold out to the hispanic special interests. The shoe hasn't hit the floor yet.

Made me think of this exchange:

It makes me wonder why it took so long for this bit of information to be released. right or wrong if they had released this immediately then all this brouhaha might never have occurred. The PD had to have known that...

Of course. Either they are negligent or cunning. Could be either.

This is the kinda stuff that turns people into conspiracy theorists...

[Brian4Liberty]

Because we can trust DC to Police the Police...

[Brian4Liberty]

[coastie]

That should be exactly what we're not gonna do.

AF, my thoughts exactly. Maybe they're really just concerned of the whole 1033 process, this will slimline it.

[Snew]

...which would essentially create a military police force (even more militarised than what we have now)... gee, I bet that would end well.
