Minneapolis has a POLICE problem. They have an inflexible, fascist Police Union leader that protects rogue officers. I believe in most unions, but this one, in particular, is real bad. So, they HAVE to try something? The city is forced to. I would suggest volunteer college students ride along in the cruisers as observers to try to prevent or document Police overreach. The Colleges are often closed, so that would be something positive that students could do with their extra time and get experience. Trying something new when there is a problem is basic to problem solving.
Minneapolis Police Unions have gone too far. Where DO you go when you've gone too far?
