    1. @Joseph Harris OMG so much for being Pro Life! but tbh I don’t even think they care I think they are just trying to be more controlling of woman because of their sexism.

  2. In a stunning turn of events, it turns out it would be the republicans who are defunding the police by not passing a relief bill that would help pay for the police. 😂🤣

    1. Thank you‼️👍🏽🤬🤬🤬Doh‼️
      Of course, I’d not yet even thought of the issue exactly like that🇺🇸😷🤦‍♀️🌎

  3. Police immunity is completely out of hand in the US. If the Police were accountable these problems would disappear within a matter of months.

    1. You’d think that 1 person would be assigned to verify the address first. It’s like they need a checklist before these “raids”. Total incompetence.

    2. All warrants have to be issued by judge. You can’t break into somebody’s house and search their house without a search warrant. So in this case they need to be disbarred.

  4. The video show, what six or seven white guys young white officer’s breaking into this 50-year-old woman’s home. This is ridiculous and it’s happening all over the US.

    1. How difficult would it be to develop a training program similar to the ones in other countries? We’re one of the few countries where the cops shoot people as a first resort, and the only reason it keeps happening is because they know they’re going to get away with it. Hold them accountable for their actions!

  5. Mayor Lightfoot needs to bring those officers in and fire them on the spot. The officer who signed off on the raid needs to hand in their resignation letter after proper investigations have been carried out.

    1. People in other professions get fired every day for things that seem trivial to this… Not even a second thought, get out…

  6. In the 80’s we had Congressional hearing about music lyrics. In the 90’s we had Congressional hearing on video game violence. In the early 2000’s we had Congressional hearings on steroids in baseball. Why have there not been hearings on Police brutality in Congress. It just doesn’t make sense. that is an outrage and an injustice to all.

  7. Now that’ this just come back into the light again y’all about to lose your job you’re about to lose your job

  8. “Lost our humanity?” Some people are not looked upon as human so then you can treat them any way you feel. I am sorry for Ms. Young. It will not take away the indignity she endured but, I hope she sue and win. This must stop!

  9. When comparing the USA to all other first world countries law enforcement it’s incredibly obvious there’s a big problem.

  10. It’s time to make those officers and any in the future responsible for their actions!! BY LAW!!! Nationwide, and they should always have body cameras Nationwide!! BY LAW!!!

  11. Thank you for this type of compassion action and clarity within our government. A year is too long and should be addressed. Keep this going. We need discussions actions and results. Can you also address why your administration went to federal court to stop the station from airing the footage?
