Highprofile controversies that we find ourselves in come down to the same problem, that two people who didnt know each other very well attempt to communicate and fail or attempt to understand each other and fail. Bernie madoff, people had conversations with Bernie Madoff and never understood who he was. The Jerry Sandusky case at penn state. Brock turner Sexual Assault case at stanford a few years back, these are failed communications. And the one that really, the book starts and ends with, the signature case im concerned with is the sandra bland case, which is one of those high profile encounters between African Americans and Law Enforcement that was, excuse me, so much in the news a few years ago, which was a conversation between a young black man, black woman and a Police Officer who pulls her over, and the conversation goes off the rails.

Conducted a review of looking at what the issues were in Nursing Homes in terms of finding deficiencies and Infection Prevention and control prior to the pandemic, what the history has been in terms of whats been reported to h. H. S. Host and heres some of the topline data out of that report from the g. A. O.

Peaceful way. And the majority of the protesters are very peaceful. They had the moral high ground no different than what happened when you had the terrorist attacks on the church in charleston. And members of that Community Even though they thought there would be looting and burning and vandalism and my cousin was one of those killed for no reason at all, the community kept the moral high ground and it galvanized the world. And so what youre seeing in places across the country are people who have the moral high ground but it has been hijacked. Theyre no different than the Law Enforcement officers that i consider to be their behavior to be no more than thugry the way george floyd was killed for no reason at all and others just stood around and did nothing as if it was something that they were accustomed to even though the cameras were rolling.

They are not statements. These are crimes that her innocent american citizens. The First Amendment guarantees the right of the people to peaceably assemble. What we saw last night in washington and across the country was not that. To that end, President Trump is demanding action to protect american citizens, to protect american businesses. Nationalcan guard are deployed in 24 states, but according to general millie only two states have deployed more than 1000. For the lawlessness we are seeing, far more needs to be done. Governors across the country must act, deploy the National Guard as is fit, and protect communities. As trump has said repeatedly, it is very important we have Peaceful Protesters and support the rights of Peaceful Protesters, but we cannot allow a situation like what happened in minneapolis to descend further into lawlessness and chaos.
