The great paradox of US policing, is that the only proven way to consistently reduce open air drug markets, is to do *less* policing. 🙂🙃
Because policing is mostly brutalizing Black folk.🤷🏿♂️
And that makes Black folk not trust the cops.
These skateboard kids of all races, ages, and genders, just got a small taste of what it feels like to be policed. They can't unlearn that.
No one wants to be policed.
Everyone wants to feel safe.
