He's among activists who are calling for police reform to reduce the violence in Baltimore and several other high-crime cities across the U.S. that he says haven't seen change. That change begins with a conversation between the communities directly involved, Scott says.
"We need the front line police officers and we need the heart of the black community to step to the forefront of this discussion," he says. "And that's when we're going to see a decrease in crime."
what is communication with the decent/good people from the bad parts of town going to accomplish? serious question
those aren't the people likely to commit murder and i doubt the police want them going all vigilante

What I wanted to see happen was that people would be able to trust the relationship with our police department so that they would feel more comfortable. We'd have conversations with the police about crime in their neighborhood because they would feel safer. So we wanted the police there. We wanted them engaged in the community. We didn't want them beating the hell out of us, we didn't want that.
i still don't get what they want? more snitching? is that it?

I'm a preacher, I want to be hopeful, but not as it stands, no. Not until we really have a real conversation with our front line officers in the heart of our black communities that does not involve our people who are "leaders."

he's literally mumbling words that don't mean anything tactile in terms of policy

It's like the anti crime rallies that they have in which nothing remotely is accomplished

This is the MO of your standard black community activist moron. Unfortunately, it's caught on and viewed as a legitimate set of talking points. Just see the mayor of BR and her administration. They simply speak in vague platitudes and love to talk about having conversations and meetings. It allows them to give the impression that they're doing something without having to address the actual problems in their community. It's just like Deray McKesson when people ask him about white privilege and what to do about it. All platitudes.

More snitching would probably be a good thing.
Back in the 90s, black leaders wanted harsher sentencing laws Bc crime was so out of control, and Clinton gave it to them. Now those same sentencing laws are racist.
