Thank you for this tweet.

Propagating a war on you? By stating a direct quote that said "lethal force is the last resort, not the first?" Isn't that something we should all agree on?

The implication of my quoted statement? It was a quote made last night by Sanders. Not clear on how talking about reform to address an issue is "propagating war". The instances of officers using lethal force has been rising. While there are many factors, it needs to be addressed.

Violence against cops is also rising. Do you know how many cops were killed in the line of duty last year? How about so far this year? Celebrating violence is part of the problem. Lack of personal responsibility, and deterrence to commit crimes are also issues.

Now we are getting somewhere! Because I know certain lobby groups (that will remain unnamed) promote violence to sell more weapons that are more powerful than most police forces are equipped with. Curious to hear your thoughts on that.
