#Progressivism

Any “reform” that involves giving more money to police departments, to “help” with anything a politician thinks they ought to do, should be unconditionally opposed. – – – “Are you a witness to the enlightenment liberals are currently going through as their wish for further funding of police officer body cams just went to shit with the Grand Jury’s #EricGarner decision? Good, because just as the passive racists that sympathized with Darren Wilson must now reconsider their strategy on how to better formulate their argument(s) to Garner compared to Brown, so do those progressives who thought cameras would do any better work toward justice insofar as having camera funding be something of an end-all solution. Below, many of these proposals wrongly assume it is a problem of just individual bad cops, rather than that policing itself has always been about legal privilege, social pressure, and racial control. But anything short of these proposals for “reform”, like body cam funding, is, I’m sorry to say, selling both POC and these state of affairs short. So for some, here’s a guide to becoming a little bit more real about your politics in fighting for worthy solutions, because #blacklivesmatter. ” —Benjamin Blowe
