Police officers often resort to drawing their weapons and get physical right away when a situations slightly gets escalated

They don't know how to deescalate a situation without harming the victim. Even for race, they will find any reason to pull you over or suspect you for whatever reason based on the color of your skin.

Yes we have seen this multiple times and it’s sad atp officers are raciest

 @B9JQNXHNo Labels from New Jersey  agreed…5mos5MO

I completely agree with this fact because police officers are going straight to violence when they see an ounce of color on your skin but when it could be a white person they can be the nicest person in the world even offering to do things for them or giving them things if they wanted to ask for it. Police have been having no respect to the colored people of this world and it needs to stop, it should've stopped when slavery had stopped but people are still judging us based off our appearance and thinking that we are all alike.

There should be more research done on who are our policemen. if they have a past criminal history and have shown aggressive signs in the past they should not be allowed to be a police officer.

 @B9JL8LLDemocrat from North Carolina  disagreed…5mos5MO

People should not see a police car and be immediately scared or worried. They have weapons that can easily take out many people if used correctly. There needs to be stricter regulations of the kind of weapons they use and how they use them.

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”
