So I'm all for Barack Obama, thats whats up and all. However I'd like some sort of debate for these local positions, an open forum for these proposals. How am I suppose to choose which way yes or no to vote with a 30 sec. commercial with both sides only telling me what I wanna hear. Collective Bargaining, Bridge or No Bridge...not only do I vote yes or no but do the other officers I'm voting for agree with how I'm voting on these proposals?
I mean personally in my community people are not prepared for the jobs that are available not necessarily because of education. Yet because of transportation, dont let me get started on gas prices, child care, new wardrobe needed, a peace of mind at home. The increased the violence, people don't see any sign of hope any sign of change they're willing to take the life of the next man to obtain the false sense of reality their watching on social media and television. What proposal changes that?
What proposal will stop all of this nonsense of who sleeping with who on public offices in the media? Personally I dont care, as long as they're handling the job or at least making a valid attempt. What can we propose to get more officers on the streets, more community organizations involved in our decision making. Carrie Alderman of Chicago "says we can use a cop on every block but can we afford it? " The question is can we not afford to do what it takes to save lives!!?
I said all this to say are we truly making an informed decision, are we holding the people we are appointing to office responsible for the decisions they are making in office, are we being active participants in changing our lives? Or are we idly standing by checking the box?
