      what is troubling is your classic 19th c.liberal stance on the constitution. So what is your opinion on Graham v. Connor

      No new legislation necessary. Under 4A, search/seizure is unreasonable without probable cause/warrant. Assault/battery still apply.

      well it is the justification for killing Black people sir, so yes legislation is needed

      may I assume by your silence that representing Black American constituents concerns re: Graham v. Connor is not a priority

      No. My focus has been on protecting civil liberties. The answer is usually not more laws but rather enforcement of existing laws.

      Pleased that you care about Civil Liberties, so why not talk to your Black constituents re: Graham v Connor and how it violates

          so why hasn't your staff ever organize one as it has done for your other constituencies?

          We have tried on several occasions. Unfortunately, the community members helping us have always backed out at the last minute.

          hmmm, really? I'm skeptical of that answer. Black folk in GR are your constituents too, so no lame excuses

          If you think I'm the problem, then you are not following my work closely. I'm the one most upset that these meetings fall through.
