Police unions are very smart politically: They need immunity for killing, racism

Why did PPA invest $15,000 in Eudaly’s rival Mingus Mapps? Why did a smart guy like him take that cash?

Thousands have suffered police violence.

Tens of thousands wrote to council.

A thousand have testified in the public record.
