1. Learn the Law Before Starting a Protest –
This is very important. Too many people are too busy with their daily
errands, struggles or pleasures. They pay less attention to legislation.
Many do not even know a new law has changed their way of life until
it’s too late to stop it. To protest after the fact is dumb. Many do not
vote, those who vote, do not follow up on their candidate. It’s highly
important to know the law of the land and actively participate in its
implementation process.
There should be a collective
vigilance, insisting that legislators are held to the standards of the
law. These standards must be clearly stated without LOOPHOLES. The
legislator should implement laws that YOU support. For a generation that
finds polarization in its system, when questionable laws are already in
place, it’s their responsibility as citizens to persuade their
legislator to change the law. Laws are supposed to appease the citizen,
they should be advantageous.
2. Know Your Legislator and Learn How to Reverse a Law –
Legally, if the majority of citizens do not support a law that has been
passed, they should know how to reverse it. Law enforcement works with
law. To control law enforcement, we should check the law. Knowing this,
it becomes clear that simply protesting against a murdofficer is not
enough. It is the law or system that allow an agent to be a murdofficer
that should be repealed. Protesting against the agent is not
intelligent. As citizens we must control our legislators.
Officials, legislators and law
enforcers are PEOPLE who choose to serve us. If we fail to pay attention
to them, we allow them the freedom to do whatever they want. All
citizens must belong to fraternities, movements or organizations that
have a voice and those voices should be heard in an actively involved
process prior to a law being made rather than when it is being enforced.
We have the power to influence legislation. Know the law, be wise who
gets to make and keep the law and learn how to reverse a law or remove
its legislator if the law does not serve the public’s collective
interest. Take an educated control!
3. Say No to Grand Juries –
Don’t just obey. As citizens we have the right to inform officials
whether a unilateral mandate warrants any obedience. What is the purpose
of a grand jury? What makes it so essential when a murdofficer stands
in the face of justice? We have to ensure that the law applies to every
person who draws breath in our country – politicians, legislators, law
enforcers and citizens alike. The grand jury is not a transparent
system. It can be manipulated as per the wish of a prosecutor. What is
such a system doing in these United States??? The grand jury system
should be outlawed.
The term “grand jury” suggests that
it is above reproach, that their decision is above scrutiny. There is
nothing grand about that, except for the loophole it creates to allow a
judge or a prosecutor to break the law without going to prison. Everyone
should be charged under the same procedure of the law in a public court
while presumed innocent until proven guilty. If you asked American
citizens, the vast majority will agree that this is what we all expect.
This is why the people are outraged! Murderers are being let into our
streets with police uniforms, guns and badges paid for with the public’s
dime!
For change to be affected and not
blocked by opposing legislators in Congress with political views that
are opposed to the majority, there should be one voice on an issue. The
trial of a police officer who has committed a crime against a civilian
should be held in an independent court from which a grand jury is
completely exempt. We have seen that the grand jury is simply a process
used to override the voice of the people. So, instead of protesting
against a murdofficer, protest against the grand jury. Call for its
dissolution. Instead of rioting, go and become a legislator. Get enough
votes and change the flaw in the system.
4. Be Rid of Unilateral Governance or Remove them from Office –
This is a democracy. Our army goes to war, under the banner of human
rights, freedom and justice. In the “land of the free”, we should demand
respect from police. We are talented, educated and hard working
citizens who deserve courtesy. No law abiding citizen should fear its
government. Public service should reflect the demographic of the
community being served. The law should never be used to embarrass,
discriminate, ruined a reputation, profile, be prejudice or murder
family members, friends, neighbors or fellow countrymen.
The past is the past, the future
should never reflect the horrors of the past. Our families love. Each of
us are people with dreams and aspirations. We support our military and
veterans, we demand respect and the ability to trust law enforcement. We
idolize firefighters and paramedics. We love our country. We are
citizens, immigrants and residents! We must ensure that our lawmakers
truly represent and follow our collective interest without any
excuse. For example, when the majority says, “no to grand juries”, we
should never see another grand jury ever again. This is democracy. The
WILL of the people.
Protests are outcries. Do you see
the police protesting? Do lawmakers protest? Yet they are there to
afford the will of the people. Why should people have to protest when
they have the ultimate power? Why are they asking? When the majority of
people call for a murdofficer to be indicted, we should see the
murdofficer being charged for the crime committed. If this does not
happen, legislators need to be replaced, promptly. Before we protest, we
must know the law, the process it takes to create or reverse one and
then identify the legislators who have been delegated with the
opportunity to pass the laws which our Judges. prosecutors and law
enforcers are HIRED to upkeep.
5. Police the Police –
The military [which we all adore and respect] has a military police. If
they can be policed so should the police. In the civilian system, there
is no way you can expect true justice at the same court that gave the
officer his marching orders. A civilian court will never prosecute its
officer for giving or carrying out its orders. Remember, the prosecutor
sits high up on this pyramid. Behind the curtain sits the legislator who
writes the law and the judge who enforces it through the police. Who is
there to control these people?
In the civilian system, there
should be someone who polices the judge, prosecutor and the police as
they give and take up warrants and investigations. The police has proven
that they are incapable of policing themselves fairly without
self-vindication. Its a natural fact. Especially since they have the
media as a medium of mass communication. The entire civilian court
system should be under a higher authority that is independent from the
court yet superior to it. Therefore, there has to be a separate agency,
one specifically designed to arrest and charge police officers just like
the M. Ps. do in the military.
The people want this said agency
that polices the police to have absolute authority over the police, to
enforce the law over the judge, prosecutor and the police just as fairly
as any other person who draws breath in the country. This means, just
like in the military, the police will be held accountable without
special treatment and brought to justice after they overstep their
authority or bring an untimely coffin to another family.
