Message Replied To ==========
I have tried to read up on the Breonna Taylor thing and it is hard to unravel.
The most basic facts seem to be in dispute. Seems she was a person w/ much going for her and much against her, much to commend and much that can only be described as poor choices.
But it is very hard to defend the actions of the police and it smells a bit like a cover up. And she should not be dead.
Right apartment? Wrong apartment? No knock warrant? Regular warrant with a knock and proper ID? Who fired at whom and who started the firing?
Did the police misconduct rise to the level of a crime? Murder? Manslaughter?
I would hate to be on the receiving end of a raid triggered by a tip and I would hate to be a policeman in one of the hot zone cities.

Please consider watching this 15-20 minute Ted Talk by a young conservative Christian woman from MS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V263dVJZlqs.
I helped sponsor a talk by her in my hometown and she's even more engaging in person. Her message has a lot of depth and weight to me and I hope it will be be seriously discussed and considered in our nation. We've tried the War on Drugs for 50 years and it has utterly failed. It's time to see if there is another possible solution.
If the War on Drugs ends, the Breonna Taylor stories end.
