Community Police Commissions are Anemic

-->

After listening to the CPC present its report to the Seattle City Council, I better understand why the Department of Justice strongly intervened as the voice of rational behavior. Even members of the city council were dumbfounded by the committee’s sugar coated but lethargic inactions of leadership. Many languages are adept at double-speak, but the CPC presentation of bureaucratic jargon surely stunk of hyperbole self-promotion.  The committee’s intolerance of police dehumanizing black males is an anemic consideration at the very best. As evidenced by Seattle’s history of rubber-stamp committees, their predictable actions want to reduce the pace of social justice and even in some regards reverse the civil rights of Seattle’s black Americans. It seems the committee has shrugged off the human consequences of police brutality and the destructive connecting dots of the judicial system, unemployment, and homelessness. Once again, the innocent victim is blamed for being raped because they represent indifference to power. The reports algorithms of racist disincentives do not acknowledge the wide statistical disparity of institutional racism. This is a stunning display of naïveté that I hope the city council corrects. This aristocratic committees personal values and public policies have thrown black male victims of a corrupt system under Ted Nugent’s tour bus of discrimination.
