I think that is what they should get.

How is that going to work out and who is it going to hurt ?

Don't answer the question.

It's a waste of time answering any of your lamebrained questions.

The police need to do their jobs and find ways to accomplish their jobs humanely. But enforcing the laws by targeting neighborhoods and the people in them who come from a history of 500 years of institutional racism, and not doing anything to correct the social situation, isn't going to correct anything.

Randy Newman was, and remains right:

We don't know our ass from a hole in the ground...
We're rednecks...
We're rednecks...
Keepin' the niggers down.
