We need a public safety system, including, at times, ones with guns. But we're applying the wrong solution a lot of the time and we need to change that.

what is a public safety system, and how does it differ from police? how does Minneapolis transition? What if someone breaks in your house armed during the transition?
over the years several police forces have been put under Fed scrutiny, Detroit's included. One major change was to make the racial make up, especially in command positions, look like the community. Minneapolis's police does not look like the community.
