Four years after Baltimore and the Justice Department agreed to a consent decree to mandate police reforms, NBC News’ Tom Llamas looks into how things have changed for the police department and the community. An officer says he believes the reforms are working, however some in the city say the process is slow, or that they haven’t noticed a difference.

Freddy Gray was Murdered the news wants to down play it.
The reason why cops may be tough immediately on a person that for some reason is to be arrested, due to sudden aggression or what else, is to minimize the risk to both the subject, the cops, and the community.
When someone is being belligerent, acting up, being suspicious, or has a warrant of arrest on them and the cops judge that the safest way is to restrain them but the person simply refuse it is warranted by the officers to forcefully minimize the risk of escalation of violence. There are numerous examples of when cops were too lenient ending up having to fight for their lives; in some of these instances, people were killed. Meanwhile, people blame the police for these deaths when in fact those who hold the principal blame is the community that voted for politicians that actively heighten the risk to people's lives. By actively misrepresenting why police act as they do and feeding the community a false image of how likely people are to simply obey lawful orders, to not suddenly violently resist, to not suddenly intentionally threaten people's lives, these politicians undermine the trust people have in the legal society.
But at the end of the day, it is the community's responsibility whether their police officers feel the need to be willing to engage in violence swiftly to protect themselves and the overall community. Regrettably, it seems that people undercut the police's ability to protect themselves and others by increasing the chance for each cop to defend themselves in court for simply choosing to try to restraint a subject using force.
The Police aren’t the problem.
It’s the people who live there.
How's that consent decree and de-escalation working out for the near number record number of homicide victims. Officers…stay in your cars. Try not to take any action if you can help it.
Ich darf mich nicht einmischen…..Eine ganz vorsichtige Frage, gibt es keine Anwälte für Bedürftige? Ich denke, damit kann man auch sehr viel Gutes tun?
Frustration ist nicht zu übersehen.
Gebt die Hoffnung nicht auf und räumt auf! Ihr könnt das und ihr macht das. Zeigt der Welt, dass ihr aufstehen könnt!
First i think they should train the thugs and criminals not to be thugs and criminals! But its never the thugs and criminals fault! Always the police fault! Amamzing isnt it?
A devil nature is paranoia and confusion that’s why they are this way
Unrest.. burning shops and cars

Nothing can save Baltimore now. It's a dead city. No one will come here, nor should they.
Coddling criminality nice job, Baltimore is one the most violent cities in the country.
You have a lot of people getting killed and they’re allowing the senseless violence to continue to happen because of consent decree
When the employees act up, send them a memo. You were hired to serve not run a fear racket. If the job is too scary, find one more suitable to your temperament.
THE MERCENARY STARRING A FORMER FFL 2 REP SNIPER NOW ON AMAZON PRIME …..
Cameras and tickets through the mail, protect police and citizens. Only people acting dangerously should be pulled over, people exceeding the speed limit by a lot okay. Otherwise tickets through the mail. People get a couple tickets they will slow down. 👍🏻🇺🇸
Public pension slave traders
This change is good. It's really not being implemented enough or well
They feel vulnerable because they can't just shoot someone or use excessive force when they feel slightly uneasy and now they must engage in the situation and realize that some people are just angry in the moment and you should withdraw from using force until necessary..
When Indians were assigned land. They assimilated. When first generation immigrants came over, they assimilated. Why the *uck can't minorities and extremists assimilate like *ucking intelligent, law abiding human beings.
Baltimore PD has been one of the most corrupt depts in the entire country. They played nice for the camera, i promise you.!! #HonorYourFuckinOath
Pay attention cops…
"Don't judge a man by the color of his skin but by the content of his character."
Here you have a individuals:
1. Fist fighting
2. Yelling at police
3. And my favorite walking in public with their pants sagging and underwear showing.
Message to African Americans…it's not the color of your skin that is the issue. It's the content of your character.
"Now go, attack the Amalekites and totally destroy all that belongs to them. Do not spare them; put to death men and women, children and infants, cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys.”
