When will police reform come ?

Im more interested in when will reform come to the black community ? Don’t they realize that the reason police officers are assiged to their neighborhoods is because there is excessive amounts of crime there? If they would drop the gangsta, gang-banging crap, then the number of police assigned there would decline ... but as long as the people in that community tolerate or condone that behavior, it will continue.

This is the key question not being discussed. The George Floyd case is a perfect microcosm of the problem. The entire debate - per the media overlords - revolves around those 9 minutes. What is not allowed to be discussed - ever - is what about the 46 years before that? Why was he so well known to the police? The official narrative treats it as though police wander around and randomly select black men to harass, but no. 99% of the time, there is a reason police show up in a given location. But that crime doesn't count according to BLM.

I think more and more people are recognizing this reality. Maybe that's just wishful thinking on my part.
