Louisville Police Adopt Seattle Safe Harbor Initiative For LGBTQ Protection

Citizens have different opinions...that's the way it goes. Try not lumping all citizens into one. I know people who hate everything the police do, while other people believe any decision made by a police officers is the right one.

I'm all for things to help bridge the gap, BUT several different stories from several different members/citizens of the west end get on the news and says "we need help, we need more police down here". Others say "Police are racial profiling and harrassing us". You cant have it both ways citizens of Louisville. When 3/4 of 112 murders are occurring in mostly african american neighborhoods, the POLICE HAVE TO POLICE.... We are not social workers, we are not ice cream men, we are not peace walkers, we are not psychiatrist or paramedics.. we are POLICE. There to enforce and uphold laws. So police should be allowed to aggressively and lawfully police. When you do that in minority neighborhoods of course the officers will stop mostly minority citizens. Yes even good citizens who are not criminals but have a tail light out will get stopped etc.... Good citizens may by inconvenienced, but when you're begging for help to stop 112 murders in your neighborhood I would love the police presence and proactive aggressive policing to keep me, my family, my grandchildren Etc. safe. If officers do wrong, then those will be addressed, but Citizens of Louisville, YOU CAN'T HAVE IT BOTH WAYS.
