Folks love the imaginary Hollywood spectacle of a courtroom battle over legal rights, but @maura_healey and @AndreaForAG 's best move is to negotiate and settle a lawsuit to free disabled people from nursing homes. My latest in @CommonWealthMag #mapoli

Here @WeThePeople_MA is defending the Boston police. Wait a few hours/days to see her do an about-face on this issue. It all hinges on whatever position is getting the most applause, on social media. #bospoli #mapoli

Also UNIONS shouldn’t have influence over #PublicSafety. Any meaningful #PoliceReform MUST include set of CORE responsibilities & requirement which AREN’T subject so-called COLLECTIVE BARGAINING. Cops AREN’T cleaning ladies, they hold life & death in their hands. #BOSpoli #MApoli

Notorious VOG @NotoriousVOG

Accreditation MUST be required for PROFESSIONAL law enforcement. Every individual police officer SHOULD be required to be licensed and unable to do police work w/o such license and accreditation. Police are given too much authority and too little responsibility. #BOSpoli #MApoli

@Livinthetruth1 That sounds good. But, trust me, in a city and state where @massdems Black & white electeds practice herd endorsement simply to take the vote out of hands of #Black & #brown voters. All your comfort-food for white consumption goes out the window.
