Thank you. It's good to see you. Thank you. pointing back to our police department. It points to a lack of credibility that the jurors had with our police department. People are inclined to believe authority. It takes a lot of work to erode that trust and that ties back to gross lacks of judgment. I want the police to have less rules and regulations. I want them to use their judgment but hand -in-hand with that is their proven track record of showing good judgment. We know why you have rules . It's because of experience of showing bad judgment in the past. When we see the police chief Nolan use that gross lack of judgment when he chose to go in, escalate a scenario, throwing someone down last year, it's completely appropriate for the police to use force when they're using good judgment, when they're using it to keep the public safe, when they're using that against people that are resisting arrest. But this is the police chief going in, grabbing someone, and throwing them to the floor. And when we're using it to keep the police chief, and we're using it to keep the police chief. And when we live with that in our community, a police chief teaching his trainees and his force that the police do not have to show respect for people's property, then that's a huge erosion of trust. And we'll see more and more issues like this in the future. When they have lack of good judgment, when they show unfair ness in their policing, it erodes convictions. It doesn't matter who the subject is, …
