One of the most urgent questions facing our country is this: what makes police feel they have permission to act this way?
Police cajoled Najee Seabrooks to come out the bathroom then shot and killed him. #justice4Najee.

Democrats have been the primary enablers of the current brutal police states since the 84 crime bill.

Most people can't bother worrying about any of this, unfortunately. Poverty is too much. We're too busy trying to afford basic necessities. Support Ubi ;)

Reading what happened and seeing what happened are two different things. I’ll reserve judgment till I can see what happened so I can better understand their decision making.

This is where your strength lies. Shedding light on issues, not running for an office you’ll never win. If you ACTUALLY want to hold public office (not engage in a publicity stunt to sell books) run for local office.

Permission to talk to the guy for five hours during which he was cutting himself and then decided to charge the officers who were trying to help him with a deadly weapon? Should the cops have let him stab them?
Replying to @marwilliamson
I mean they do have permission to act that way. They act that way all the time. Not sure what you think would give them the idea they don't.

The answer: judicial indifference. #EndQualifiedImmunity => End #PoliceBrutality
Replying to @marwilliamson
The Democrats & Republicans let them (obviously)

Because, for the most part, they do have permission! Can’t we have a federal standard for training!?
