Rev. D Montgomery, Pres. of the sclc needs to focus on the community members who cause all of the crime and trouble and the illigetimate birth rate that supplies the streets with unsupervised, fatherless children running wild, and let the MCPD do their own training. They do not need your bigoted racial overtones; they need HR dept do their job better.

Well Reverend Try cleaning up your neighborhood of the trash and filth and you need not worry about the MPD coming in there with their attitudes. It seems to me the police do go through training and checks. I have not seen anything of any one walking off the streets and being given a gun , a badge and any authority. If these crime addled neighborhood start to police themselves and the parents start to police their offspring then things would be better. But when you are raised that things in life are free if you work the system you have no respect for anything including the police. Yes they are police officers but they are human first and can and will make mistakes. And you can will find trash on the force as with any large entity( i.e. Government Agencies, Government contractors , Wall Street, Local banks, all the way down to your local dog pound).
