ACLU: End The Culture Of Warrior Policing

Sign the ACLU petition to congress to End The Culture Of Warrior Policing.

It’s time to change policing practices to make policing about community safety. Pass the Preventing Tragedies Between Police and Communities Act of 2016 to hold police officers accountable and require officers to use tactics to avoid escalating a situation, use the lowest level of non-lethal force possible and safely respond to identified threats.
