Do you hate city officials confirmed redacted Officer Reports ?

Do you hate campaign finance reports ?

So misleading your friend with information that was wrong is just a "minute contextual detail" ?

Oh see no evil, hear no evil, your mind is made up already.

Wait you think racism is a problem even though you just said "The whole SB police chief story is such a non-factor" ?

A mayor could investigate the racist police or tell his donors not to help the racist police. It's possible to do that without "knowingly violating a federal statute. The mayor doesn't have to join illegal activity to investigate racist cops. A cover up for racist cops is not the only solution that will keep the city peaceful. Seriously doing more to fight racism is not a stretch or wtf moment.
