Better training. More diversity to reflect community. Physical fitness tests every 5 years. More community policing instead of reactive
@8QZQKLK4yrs4Y
Yes but they should also have more funding for educating the police force on racial inequality.
@8Z7WCTH3yrs3Y
Funding should be equally split for both parties
@8V6RLGM4yrs4Y
it depends on the local police department and social community-based programs.
@8T7LX3C4yrs4Y
I believe that both need attention
@9944BMHNew Democratic2yrs2Y
While police should not be abolished, some funds should be redirected to social programs.
@9928V752yrs2Y
No it should instead be redirected to funding increased reliability (better mental health response, and ethical decisons based on various spectrums of social preassures) of police and alongside the increase in funding a increase in responsibility and liability be placed on police in instances of malpractice
@98ZDGC72yrs2Y
There needs to be a complete police reform, otherwise we are just funding racist murderers.
@989ZJ932yrs2Y
Police officers should be more helpful to the community and undergo strict supervision.
@8VFHPR84yrs4Y
Create additional resource officers who are specifically for community outreach and mental health. Sometimes it be how the community doing, not what the community doing
