I think that these could be a good starting point for some conversations on this stuff between state leaders and the organizations advocating for this.

My hope is that the leaders in the state come to the table and don't just have a "frick off" attitude.

The riots and looting are dumb and have taken away a chance to really solve some issues. Because police brutality is a real issue. Hopefully leaders can see this as a chance to at least listen to one another.

Don’t see the issue with these demands. Should associate with every cop/civilian interaction no matter the race.

This sounds like they want to charge the victims in home invasions. If you defend yourself, you will be deemed a criminal. Crimialize self defense. The bridge too far. Insanity of humanity.

So only elevate investigations of white shootings in Birmingham?

Honestly, I’m just happy that someone has finally come up with a list of demands of some sort. Finally two sides can at least try to have discussions and come to some sort of agreement on a passing some laws. Not just everyone yelling chants.

Shoot to injure is insane. Body cam and 911 releases are good though.

Isn't that a double standard? 

They don't care about double standards.

Just look at all the "stay at home" shite that was being said 3 weeks ago. Now if you tell rioters (regardless of race) to "just go home", well, you're just a racist.

7. Implement implicit bias training for interacting with persons of color to include racial sensitivity, diversity training, and de-escalation strategies.

This is such a waste of time. You aren't changing anyone's opinions/beliefs by forcing them to take diversity training.

Think it’s a pretty good list to ensure no one wants to be a cop ever again.

Personal fan of the defund the police push. Would be must watch TV.

Does this include minorities shot by minority officers? My guess is no.


I didn't read the op, but do think people aren't racists towards their own race?

The sad thing is 90% of that list is fine and could have come from a libertarian civil rights organization.

No, people aren't racist against their own race (with very rare exceptions)

They might be prejudiced against their own race

The art of negotiation, bruh. Slip in a couple unreasonable terms you know won't get agreed to to make the rest of the demands look more acceptable.
