You know, we've seen Ah, what?

We've seen a lot of protests.

We've seen a lot of anger.

We've seen statues come down, calls for defending the police protests, George Floyd incident.

What do you What is your perspective on all this?

It's hard impact.

I mean, you just in that one question, right?

There is about 17 hours worth of discussion, but it's it's it's frustrating.

It's heartbreaking to see people coming apart at the seams.

I think that in addition to you know, I do believe in reform.

I believe that policing should not be reformed now because of the George Floyd incident.

I think it should constantly be observed and reformed as our society evolves.

Just like that, I think politics should be just like I think teaching should be fill in the blank.

If you have a community organization, you should be open to reform and that should be an ongoing conversation and process, not because something catastrophic happened.

So obviously what happened with George Floyd was horrendous.

But I also think that the cylinders were preloaded on that because people were compressed in their house.

They were being told that they couldn't go anywhere.

They're being socially isolated.

So I understand the outburst, An outpouring of anger.

Um, what I don't understand is burning a system to the ground without having an idea of what you want to replace it with.

And I don't understand burning where you live to the ground either.

I again I understand the pent up frustration and anger.

The expression of it, I think, is gonna end up doing more harm not only to those individuals but to the causes that they are supposedly supporting.

Then good.

I think they're actually end up shooting themselves in the foot.

I think de funding the police is the polite way to say that's an idiotic idea.

I do not think people are prepared to be their own first responder.

I do not think that people are prepared to live in a world and you know, people push back on this, they'll say, Well, de funding the police doesn't actually mean de funding the police.

It means rerouting some of their training and education budget.

And the actual truth is to some people, when they say defund the police, they mean exactly that.

They're talking about abolishing the police.

Some people are talking about rewriting the training.

In my opinion, the police need more money for training because they have one of the most difficult jobs on the face of the planet.

And I and I understand why people don't inherently feel and understand that because they've never had to.

Day after day, hour after hour, minute after minute show up to people's worst day of their life, people do not call 911 to report a birthday party that's going well.

They call 911 to report medical, emergency, family emergency physical violence.

And these same people report to people's worst day of their life, time and time and time again.

There's an amount of stress involved in that.

I think the mental health mental sanitation aspect of having them have a support network that can keep them in check Mila checkup from the neck up type thing.

For those officers, all that costs money, they have an extremely difficult job.

I think they need better training so they can better serve society, and it's I don't know what is going to end up being.

There's two competing, you know, ideologies.

It seems right now one is burn it completely to the ground and then let's start over and the other one is like, Hey, let's take a second here and really objectively assess what's going on and figure out a way to get where we want to be from where we are now.

And I I don't know which one is going to win out.

I think right now it's a coin toss way.
