Many of the voters Harris needs — especially younger ones — see mass incarceration as the defining racial justice and civil rights issue of our time. We teach at law schools, and we see students like these every day. When they told us — and boy, did they tell us — that President Joe Biden didn’t inspire them, one of the issues they cited most often was criminal justice.
Beyond politics, justice reform is the right thing to do. Although the marches that followed the murder of George Floyd in 2020 have diminished, the issues that sent so many to the streets haven’t gone away.
Meanwhile, we apparently dropped death penalty opposition from the party platform for some reason, smfh
Unfortunately, due to the dishonest media narrative, most people seem to believe that criminal justice reforms have triggered a crime wave in blue states and cities. So while I agree this is the right thing to do, it would have to be framed very carefully.
DOJ should go after right wing media for intentionally espousing disinformation.
Pull a scientology and file individual lawsuits for every instance of lies, disinformation, false narratives, inciting violence, pushing agendas of enemy states etc.
The biggest problem isn’t police, it’s that entire government’s and media apparatus are solely focused on destroying America and are getting away with it consequence free.
Once we drain the swamp, the police rats won’t have full political and media support for hiding their crimes and we can start making federal police reforms that actually have teeth for going after all these bad apples.
Throwing some Rapey, murdery police in jail is a start, but the national corruption runs way way deeper, and until that cancer is removed, real progress cannot be made as there will just be another game of musical chairs shuffling the problems around.
Another bit of advise from someone who has never run for office, much less national office.
