Police Punish the ‘Good Apples’

Law enforcement needs to protect those who prioritize their sworn duties above loyalty to their peers.

 "Even as bad cops evade punishment for wrongdoing, those who stand up to corruption, report negligence or abuse, or decline to comply with bad orders are frequently marginalized, demoted, or outright fired," by Musa AlGharbi from the Atlantic

The Protests and the First Amendment.

 Don’t forget in this season of demonstration that you have a right, in most cases, to keep your phone and the video you’ve taken of police activity when the cops ask for it. The Washington Post More: How the NYPD “weaponized” curfew restrictions. The Intercept

Notes from the Field

Superb work from Anna Deveare Smith. Given what is happening today it is even more distressing that the play was done in 2015. Profoundly disturbing on many levels but a must see.
