Here’s the bottom line: Given the history & purpose of police & their staunch opposition to reform, we can’t trust or expect them to address this issue. We need our electeds to act. #PassPrOTECTNow

Q3: How can I spread the word to my friends and community about #AB256?
ALT Photo of Rahsaan Thomas, incarcerated advocate. Graphic reads: “When the law is not made retroactive, you’re saying, ‘We admit that it was wrong, we’re not going to do it anymore, but anybody that we victimized with that law… y’all stuck with that time.’ If we want real justice, racism has to be extinguished.” Pass #AB256 Racial Justice Act for All. bit.ly/RJA-video.

This week's "Friday Facts" highlights exactly how excessive SDPD's use of force is.
Out of 42 California police departments, San Diego Police had the 2nd highest rate of use of force (second to Chula Vista).
Los Angeles was 22nd.

If anyone wonders why American democracy doesn't seem equitable or representative of society, it's because of our electoral systems are structured in such a way that they often deny voters representation. Change this component of democracy and we'll have a much different future.

How we vote, when we vote, and how we count those votes determines if we have a two-party system or a multi-party democracy. It's critical that we understand electoral systems if we want transformative change in the United States.
Very interesting essay from @chucktodd on the need for more political parties in America. You can be a happy D or R in current system and still believe it would be healthier if parties could more closely represent the many viewpoints in our big country. msnbc.com/msnbc/america-s-tw…

Reminder: This law was meant to address the owners of errant trash bins. It’s used almost exclusively to target the homeless. – at San Diego, CA

It says more about San Diego than I ever could that we just allow these insanely horrific stories from within San Diego County jails to stack up higher and higher every few weeks, with no change. – at San Diego, CA

Tell San Diego City Council that we need to end the stops. Sign & share this petition urging the city to pass the Preventing Overpolicing Through Equitable Community Treatment (PrOTECT) ordinance which restricts pretext stops, consent searches and stops for equipment violations.

“With the first child tax credit payment, I got [my daughter] a bunch of school supplies and educational products. When the packages would arrive, she would get all excited and ask, ‘Is that for me?’ That was the most rewarding thing.”

Biased policing in San Diego has to stop. We must pass PrOTECT to curb racial profiling. Urge San Diego City Council and Mayor Todd Gloria to pass PrOTECT! Enough is enough. #EndTheStops @CPATSanDiego
