I'm just curious what the state of the issue is in your area. So unless you happen to live in Chicago, Illinois or Portland, Oregon, I'm not interested in what's happening in those cities. I'm in interested in what's happening where you live regarding the law enforcement you would encounter.
Around here:
Around here:
- There have been some police involved shootings but no mass protests have followed.
- The last police shooting to last more than one news cycle pretty much went away as news worthy when the body cam footage came out. The suspect was clearly doing wrong (armed robbery in a store) when confronted.
- No talk about mandating vaccines for law enforcement. I think the local leaders are too clearly seeing the impact mandates had on local health care and are actually thinking twice about it. Not sure what Gov. Hochul is thinking on the issue.
- After George Floyd, school resource officers were removed from the schools. After some recent incidents, the teachers unions want them back but the school board is not doing. As almost an aside in one news story, it was mentioned gang activity is up in schools.
- Generally speaking, there does seem to be an uptick of issues in schools. Not sure if it's reality or just my perception.
- The Defund the Police / BLM crowd hasn't done anything recently to make the local news.
