  1. Volkan Topalli:

    I think that it's that's been missing in the United States for a long time, in America, we tend to think of crime as purely the purview of police departments, and I don't think that's really… law enforcement can't do everything. They need the community to be in there with them on these things. So funding some community-based efforts like violence, interruption programs, I think is a really, really good first step.

  2. Hillary Clinton:

    There are those who offer themselves as leaders who even play politics with a nomination of our nations chief law enforcement officer, finally, Loretta Lynch will be able to assume the position she has trained her lifetime for.

  3. Adam Smith:

    At a time when our nation is hurting the President continues to forgo any effort to calm tensions, as we had all hoped he would. Instead he used force to remove peaceful protesters to stage a photo opportunity. Instead of taking a moment of silence in front of the historic St Johns' Episcopal Church to pray for the lives lost he gathered his cronies to take a picture. Instead of doing the right thing, he once again did the absolute wrong thing, i have serious concerns about using military forces to respond to protestors. The role of the U.S. military in domestic U.S. law enforcement is limited by law. It must not be used in violation of those limits and I see little evidence that President Trump understands this fundamental premise.

  4. Akins Akinnagbe:

    We are grateful to local law enforcement for their swift response and are fully cooperating with their investigation into the matter.

  5. Raymond Foster:

    [Law enforcement] could also be dropping remote motion sensors to ensure that the escapees don’t backtrack on them, some motion sensors take a picture, some report back that someone is walking in that area.
