Fam,
Yesterday I engaged in a conversation with many of my colleagues regarding the

It's vital to appreciate and cherish those around you. Tell them you love and care for them. God will call them one day and you won't be able to tell them. Antonio only wanted to be a good cop and arrest the bad guys. We suffered a great loss in St.Louis County. Love you man!🙏🏾

Openly carrying firearms by minors is a recipe for disaster. Their lack of experience and maturity make them a risk to themselves and others. We need to protect our communities and restrict minors from openly carrying firearms.

I’m so upset by this incident on I-70. Time to stop the misplaced blame on police and target the real culprits! People are fed up with criminals terrorizing our streets. They need to be locked up. Fear has no place in our daily commute. Stop making excuses for criminal activity.

There is a lot of political posturing & maneuvering going on in our region for power or perceived power. What I do know is that we will not find a path forward until we find a way to prevent 5 year olds from becoming gun shot victims. Let that resonate, “5 year gun shot victim.”

If someone is bold enough to lead police on a pursuit, point a weapon at officers, just imagine the threat they pose to everyday citizens. It often feels like there’s too much advocacy for criminals, and not enough for victims. We need a shift - more advocacy for those who suffer

Crime has a devastating impact on communities, causing fear and trauma for victims and their families. People are fed up with the constant threat of violence and the lack of consequences for perpetrators. It's time for a comprehensive solution that prioritizes public safety.

There is definitely a need for a statewide registry for bad cops. Something similar to the National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB). Bad policing does harm to both the community and profession as a whole. Mandatory reporting of officers who are fired for “destructive” behavior.

The last thing law enforcement needs right now is to start arresting people who don't have homes. A number of these folks are also struggling with challenges related to their own mental health. It seems unthinkable to me that we would criminalize such a problem.🤦🏽♂️
Nearly every expert on homelessness in the state told the Republicans who passed it and the governor who signed it — including his own advisers — that it was a bad law that would do more harm than good. But they passed it anyway.

When police intensify traffic enforcement, they face criticism for not tackling "serious" crimes. Yet, when enforcement is lax, tragedies occur. It’s time to support, not criticize, our officers as they enforce laws to keep our roads safe.
